Hello all,
I am building a gaming PC. Here are the components I plan on using:

CPU Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core $209.98

CPU Cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing $29.98

Motherboard ASRock Z77 Pro4 ATX LGA1155 $107.98

Memory G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 $73.98

Storage Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM $58.99

Video Card PowerColor Radeon HD 7870 XT 2GB $139.99

Wireless Network Adapter Encore ENUWI-1XN45 802.11b/g/n USB 2.0 $11.85

Case Cooler Master Elite 431 Plus (Black) ATX Mid Tower $44.99

Power Supply Corsair 600W ATX12V $39.99

Optical Drive Samsung SH-224DB/RSBS DVD/CD Writer $24.99

Total: $749.70

So, will this setup be able to run Far Cary 3 on 1080p at medium settings?
 
Solution
Yeah you can run that on ultra without a doubt, just turn down AA settings and you should be able to run on 1080p at Ultra settings smoothly. The 7870 XT is essentially a slightly cut down 7950 so it's pretty powerful. If my 5 year old system can do medium, yours certainly can go above and beyond :D
