My budget is about 800USD but I'm from India., so I want to know whether above configuration is good?
I want to play games like battlefield, crysis 3, skyrim, etc at high if possible

I am not a master wiz at this but I did do some research. Would you go with an Amd gpu? You will get more bang for your buck. You should also think about getting an OC GPU. There are a lot of tutorials online on how to do this.

This was a build that was suggested to me by one of the top admins on the forums. It was a 850 dollar build. But it included an os, mouse and keyboard.

That's a nice build but here 3350p isn't available and 7870 costs very high. 7850 is in my reach but that's weaker than gtx 660. I like amd graphics more but I can't get better than 660. So....
Is this build okay?

Ok I see. Well in my opinion your build seems good. You should be able to run games like battle field 3 on high settings. But I would change a few things. Go with an OC CPU. And why do you need 2 TB of memory. Games like Bf3 only take up 15 GBs of memory. So you might not need that much memory.

I need 1TB. But the price difference in 1 TB n 2 TB here in india is very less so I'm getting 2 TB. Also I can't get oc cpu like 3570k because it's very costly here, n over my budget. Overall is this build ok? Like psu, case n motherboard? Are they compatible?
