so i have a dumb question.(again)

Will these parts fit together?
AMD Phenom II X2 550 3.1Ghz Black Edition
MSI RADEON HD5570 1GB
MSI MS 7142(motherboard?)


Or these:
AMD Phenom II X2 550 3.1Ghz Black Edition
MSI RADEON HD5570 1GB
MSI Socket AM2+ 785GT-E63

dont leave mean comments about how dumb i am.

Every video card will fit, the only thing you should pay attention to is the socket that the CPU requires and the socket that the motherboard supports. The first set won't fit, as the MSI MS 7142 supports a socket 754 and the AMD Phenom II X2 550 3.1Ghz Black Edition requires a socket AM2+. The second set will fit, since the MSI Socket AM2+ 785GT-E63 supports a socket AM2+.

Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2,33 GHz 4MB 1333MHz FSB 45nm LGA775

What can people say about this processor? It will run current games and upcoming ones on medium settings, won't it?

It can run most games on high actually, if you got a good graphic card.

Heh, I bought actually Q8300. But with a new graphics card, GTA IV will probably run on medium settings and full resolution without lag.

It should be able to handle current games like "Crysis" "GTAIV" "FarCry 2" "Dirt 2" of course assuming you have a good graphic card to go with. But as for upcoming games, they are going to be "Direct X11" so you'll need a DX11 Video card to play them (Anything DX10 compatible should work just not as great). Mainly because Direct X11 use's new graphic technology's that direct X10 cards may not be able to be capable with. Core2Quad is still a good cpu to this day, but technology's constantly moving. You'll need to switch some day. 

(GTAIV I'm guesstimating 35fps medium)

8500GT is not good enough for me, haha. But at least I can play games and such. Give me 2-3 years and I'll buy myself a new computer with all the latest inventory.
