ok so after just over 2 years of my current rig i'm thinking of something with a little more poke.I'm basically looking for opinions or "stay well clear of x component as its a bag of wank!" sorta thing copy an pasted from the website.

I was thinking,with the 3ghz dual core with 1333mhz FSB,4GB of fast ram an the 1GB gfx card it should be rather feckin pacey and the idea of the 2 HD's was having the 74gb mainly for OS an the 250 for storage which tbh is ample storage for me.
So what ya reckon? have i gone wrong/overkill anywhere or does it seem like a pretty solid system? thanks in advance
