Option 1: c2d 6420 Radeon x1950 pro 2gb g.skill ram (ddr2-800) gigabyte ds3 mobo (rev 3.3) Option 2: c2d 4300 Geforce 8800gts 320mb 2gb g.skill ram (ddr2-800) gigabyte ds3 mobo (rev 3.3) which will be better to get in the long run? and for games like bf 2142, doom3 and c&c3 which will have higher fps?

I like the second one more... especially if you're overclocking.

The E4300 would actually be a better option if you intend to overclock with a board which does not have good FSB walls, higher multi = better overclock with less FSB. Either way I would go with option #2. Also, do yourself a favor and get a good PSU.

Raidmax PSU's are garbage, please please do not trust it with your system. Go with something quality, and look past the wattage. Look at the amperage and its placement along the rails of the PSU.
