Once agian, your CPU is fine!

If you want to have a better gaming system you should buy a good videocard... and by this i do NOT mean a GF6200, if you want to game, buy a 6600GT atleast.
Another stick of 512MB RAM will also help but not nearly as much as a new videocard.

AMD64 San Diego @ 3GHz
Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe
2GB OCZ GOLD DDR500
Asus EN7900GTX 512MB
Maxtor 250GB 16MB SATAII
WD 160GB 8MB IDE
Thermaltake Kandalf STEEL

While the size of the L2 cache might make *some* difference, your main problems are you only have 512MB RAM & the 6200 is a weak low-end video card, not suitable for modern gaming. If you want better gaming performance, add another 512MB RAM & get a decent video card!
