Looks like a nice rig. I used to have a 9800 GTS before my mobo decided to die on my decent rig. The heating issue can be a problem but as long as you have enough cooling and decent airflow getting to it, also clean the dust out every month or two it shouldn't be a problem.

Is it a notebook or a desktop? That 9800M is a mobile/integrated chip. Might not have trouble with the titles you mentioned but I doubt it will be running anything more demanding.

Ah, thanks. When someone says "rig" I assume desktop, was rather confused.
