I hope you arent expecting someone to put together an entire list for you. You need to do that yourself to meet your standards. If you only wanted to play source, you should be fine with a 6800GT, 1 gig of ram and maybe an amd 64 3500 (venice if possible)
 
Antec Solution SLK3000-B Case 52.00
ENERMAX EG425P-VE SFMA 2.0 ATX12V 420W Power 69.99

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Venice Socket 939 190.00
EPoX EP-9NPA+Ultra 939 nForce4 Motherboard 108.00
CORSAIR ValueSelect 1GB (2 x 512MB) 88.50
HITACHI Deskstar 80GB 7200 RPM 8MB
Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 52.00
NEC Black IDE DVD Burner Model ND-3540A 43.99
Leadtek Geforce 7800GT WinFast PX7800GT 399.99

TOTAL 1004.47

that looks good to me what you think ? i went a little crazy on the card :)
you can get a 6800 gt for 299.99 and knock off a hundred more

and the games you mentioned arent really that graphics intense you can sneak by with a 6600gt

i wonder if they will make a 7600gt hmmmmmm that would rock !
 
Get 2 GB of ram. BF2 pretty much requires it at better resolutions and it would be good for future gaming. ;)

You need to get at least a 6800GT or x800Pro if you want it to last for the next couple of years of games.

I would go with an SLI board for more future upgradeability, too.

 
SLI is horriable i would never even think about it a single 7 series nvida card is more then enough and is cheaper then a SLI setup
 
SLI isn't necessary for any games right now, even with all the eye candy turned on.

As for BF2, get 1GB of RAM and see how you like it. Plenty of people run it fine with 1GB, but if you aren't satisfied, then get 2GB.
