How will this setup handle newer games?

Hi all.Let this be clear, my knowledge about computers parts are zero lol.Anyways, i've asked my friend to build me a computer which will handle new games fairly well. I'm talking Far Cry 2, Crysis etc.These are the parts he had in mind for my new computer :MOBO : ASUS P5N32 E-SLI PlusRAM : OCZ ReaperX 4096MB DDR2 PC6400 KIT @ 800Mhz (8 Gigs) GFX Card : XFX GeForce GTX 280 602M 1GB OS : Vista Ultimate x64BitHardisk : Revoltec 500gbHow would you rate this setup? Will i be good for a while not needing any more upgrades? How will this setup handle newer games?
Sorry forgot to add the CPU : Intel Q6600 @ 3.2MhzHow will this setup handle newer games?

8GB of RAM is completely unecessary. 4GB is more than enough for right now and in the forseeable future. And as previously stated, Vista Ultimate is a waste of money over Home Premium.Also, who the hell is Revoltec? They don't make hard drives that I know of. And your list is incomplete - you need a power supply and case, which are actually somewhat important choices (very important, in the case of the power supply).
Sorry if there's lack of info there, as i stated i'm not a computer guy :) I asked him and he said i'll be getting a 800W Power Supply. As for the hardisk, i dont know either :)

I'd try to get the Corsair TX650w instead, you'll probably save some money, and odds are pretty good that you'll get a better unit.
Thanks for your input, much appreciated :) I'll see what i can do with the PSU.
