I have an Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 2gb GPU, Intel core2 Duo 2.20 GHz CPU and 8 gb of ram. Can anyone tell me if this GPU can handle games like BF3\4 with this CPU ? And if not, what CPU can i get for a really low price, that can handle games such as BF3\4, MOH warfighter, AC 4 etc. I usually get around 15-20 fps when playing BF3, and it's kinda hard to play like this !!!!

Honestly, dual core gaming is on its way out man. Battlefield, especially larger multiplayer games are very cpu intensive. You'll definitely want to get a quad core intel or six core amd at the minimum, even then you probably won't get better than medium settings with a 650, and that will only go down when next gen games come out.

Right now however, your cpu is your weakest link for sure. If you can afford an i5 you'd be much better off, then upgrade the gpu later.
