So im thinking of getting this rig to start off with. will this rig allow me to upgrade? also what do you think i could play bf3 and skyrim settings on with getting smooth fps? and what do you think? -thanks
 
Solution
i dont recommend getting a mini case cause they tend to get hot easy, and an i3 is really low for gaming the i5-3570k is a much better choice and you can still get a great graphics card for around $200 if you decide to get the better cpu
