LOL, what an understatement..:laugh: I was gonna say something like "its only 256mb of memory, look for a better one" but compared to the 6200 its "GodLike"

The 380 PS will be fine.

not sure about far cry 2 but if you can play oblivion on a 6200 then you will be happy playing crysis on a 3850

I've run oblivion on a HD3850 maxed out at 1600x1200 with 2aa, but it was overclocked a good bit

Yes, I am doing so now also with a 4200+. My whole system never uses more than 200W at stock speed/voltage.
