so I just built my gaming PC recently .. I think its a better idea than getting he PS4 .. because of my budget its kinda like a mid end PC .. Ive got GTX 660 OC edition .. i5 .. 8GB of ram .. I can run Far Cry 3 on Ultra on 1024 resolution ( havent came around getting a 1080p screen yet ) on 60 avg FPS .. but my biggest concern is next gen games .. will my PC handle them .. what settings and fps should I be expecting to play on ? thanks in advance
Will my PC handle next gen?

Sure, but you'll probably want to sell your GTX 660 and upgrade to an 860 late next year to keep up with Ultra settings + 45fps or so.

Two 660's will tear through any game you could throw at them. But if I were you, I would get the 1080p Monitor next. If you have the money, you could pick up a 120Hz monitor. The difference in games is honestly night and day, and SLI 660's would really be able to take advantage of that. Even in next gen games. What is your CPU?

Well you will take a pretty solid FPS hit, probably ~20-30FPS in most games. But that isn't anything lowering some graphics settings won't fix. And the i5 3330 is a pretty solid CPU, and is perfect for your setup.
thanks man .. next thing I will do when I get some extra cash is getting a monitor .. and maybe after a year I would get a 2nd GTX 660 .. I was just afraid my GTX 660 wont handle next gen games after the xbox one and PS4 come out .. like even If not on max settings .. a custom mix between high and medium graphic settings would be enough for me

Don't worry about it, you should be fine. BTW, even low will look great on next gen games. But I doubt you would even have problems at high or medium.
