building/buying a new pc

southwestern, IA(Zone 5a)

I do quite a bit of online gaming and I am going to buy a new pc. I have put this one together(online), I am sure it will meet my current needs but I am hoping it will be good for years to come. The only thing I think may be lacking is hard drive space, but I know I can upgrade later if needed. Any computer guru's have an opinion on if this will still meet my needs in 3-4 years on say video card and processor? Specs below:

• Abit NI8 SLI LGA775/NVIDIA NF4 SLI Intel Edition/DDR2 Motherboard
• Intel Pentium D 930 Dual Core 3GHz 800MHz 2x2MB LGA775 CPU, Retail
• Cooler Master Aero 4 Lite 7J74F P4 3.2G+ CPU Fan
• X-CRUISER-BK/420 Aspire X-Cruiser Metal Case w/ Side Window-Black
• 1024MB DDR2 PC2-4200 533MHz 240PIN
• Western Digital WD800JD 80GB Serial ATA 7200rpm 8MB Hard Drive
• LG Electronics GDR-8163BK 16X DVD ROM Drive (Black) Bulk No Software
• LG Electronics GSA-H10NK 16X DVD+/-RW Double Layer Drive (Black), Bulk
• Dual EVGA nVidia GeForce 7600GT 256MB 580MHz 2DVI/TV-out PCI-Express Video Cards
• Microsoft Window XP Pro X64 Edition English (1-Pack, New)
