This is the specs for my current gaming rig, and I’ve been very happy with it for about 2 years now.  There have been some updates like the graphics card, but for the most part it’s been static.  I tend to do more than one things at a time, more like 6-10 things at a time.  Most of them include playing BF3 on one screen while running a windows vm on the other screen that is installing 3 servers remotely.  No.. my demands aren’t high at all for my desktop, but I honestly can see my demands increasing.  I also do video editing/encoding while I’m doing these things as well, so the more cores I can put on a system the better.
