I am planning to buy Crysis 3 and run it a decent setting like Very High(in terms of crysis 3;Medium Setting)
maybe... I am not a hardcore gamer though...

Theoretically, what is the average FPS i can get with my current specifications?
because it passed the recommended requirements....

my system specifications can be seen below this post....

-Thank you in Advance!

You can play Crysiss3 on verr high setting if you don't mind below 30fps
Your system would play 40-60fps on High setting @ 1080p when using smaa x2 anymore will reduce performance.

Will certainly help you 5-6 more FPS gain but you see even Multi GPU setups SLI Xfire systems with 3930k @ 4GHz struggles to play cryssis3 @ very high Its just too CPU and GPU demanding game particularly in few levels. But most levels are just fine. Thanks

I see, well, thanks, I won't upgrade my CPU then since (a) it will only boost about 5-6 FPS in crysis 3 (b) I am not a hardcore gamer and (c) I don't edit videos

This game is just too badass for me and my computer to play xD

Thanks again! :)
