Is this a good setup for a decent gaming computer?

• I've never built a computer in my life and I have a few questions: - Is this a good setup for a gaming computer? (For games like MW2 and L4D) - How do I know all these pieces will work together? - Do I need to buy an internal CD/DVD drive if I have an external one? - Which is a better graphics card, Radeon HD 5450 or Geforce GT 220?

• Answer:

  dont buy after market cooling for a dual core, just use the stock one that comes with the processor, its sorta unnecessary for just a dual core. However, take that money and use it to buy at least 4 gb of ram. After that id say its a beast. PS your motherboard has been deactivated (what it said when i entered the link). Anyways get the GT 220 also :D
