Pretty much want to know how well this setup will run newer games, hd streaming, web browsing, modding games like skyrim and minecraft? I'm just going to list the main components.
Cpu: i3-2220 stock.
Gpu: 650ti boost evga superclocked(should I get 1gb or 2gb version?).
Hdd/ssd: 500gb 7200 hdd for storage and 80gb ssd for windows 7 64bit.
Ram: 4gb 1600.

Thanks for the feed back.

get an i5 if its in your budget and 8gb would be better if you like multitasking with multiple web video windows opened

You will perform satisfactory i think
for example :
Crysis 3 min specs are :
CPU: Dual core CPU
CPU Speed: Info
RAM: 3 GB
OS: Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
Video Card: DirectX 11 graphics card with 1Gb Video RAM (Geforce GTS 450/Radeon HD 5770)
Sound Card: Yes

that`s where you fit - dual core CPU ( 4 threts but not quad CPU like optimal specs )

Optimal :
CPU: Latest quad core CPU
CPU Speed: Info
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
Video Card: Latest DirectX 11 graphics card (Geforce GTX 680/Radeon HD 7970)
Sound Card: 5.0

Recommended :
CPU: Quad core CPU
CPU Speed: Info
RAM: 4 GB
OS: Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
Video Card: DirectX 11 graphics card with 1GB Video RAM (Geforce GTX 560/Radeon HD 5870)
Sound Card: Yes

I`ll go for the GPU 660 or 670 if you care "how well this setup will run newer games" in optimal or recommended settings !

there is compare of 560 - 650 - 660

Ya I have two 2gb going to get another set in the future. Also I'm getting the i3 for now but will upgrade in a year or two to a quad. I really like the 650 ti boost but I will most likely get the 660 then. Btw I'm most likely going to wait for the haswell i3.
