Not for gaming. You'll need to put in a graphics card, and the power supply and/or cooling might not support anything good like a 6600GT.

Consider an A64 2800+ - 3000+ system with parts from newegg.com (or ZZF or mwave) instead. It will probably cost more but will be much faster for games, especially if you get a 512 MB stick of DDR instead of that 256 MB.

* $200 socket 754 A64 2800+ retail CPU plus Chaintech mobo
* Antec SLK3700 case
* 512 MB value RAM
* XP Home OEM (or Pro OEM)
