AMD Athlon X2 3800+
1 GB RAM
ATI Radeon X700pro

It works fine....

But i've decided to upgrade abit:

3 GB of RAM
Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTS

Do u guys think this is a ok system??

Better than just OK, it looks good.
Tweak the sim and you should have a nice time.

If by 'tandem' you mean a bicycle with two sets of pedals and two seats then I agree with you.

Don't forget to upgrade your PSU (Power Supply Unit) to at least 700+ watts.
