Sounds like a great machine. Great price too.
When playing Awesome games, keep your antivirus running, but close just about everything else through Task Manager. You will COOK past the other users.
Bur re-awaken all of your anti-spyware tools and firewall when you get into Downloads. Watch it carefully for unexpected downloads.
Get into proper maintenance, so it keeps screaming. That means Disk Cleanup, Defrag, Check Disk, Anti-spyware scans, setting restore points, and keeping your anti-virus up-to-date and scanned.

It is good as you described. I would choose a Pentium 4 with 3 G speed, 1GB RAM, 120 GB HD.
