You are most likely right, I was going off of this chart here.......

It shows the 650Ti Boost and r7260x doing pretty well, says Skyrim is very CPU dependent.

Thank you all so much for the help i think i may go for the GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST 2GB from what i can tell it can play it on ultra with no lag,correct me if im wrong?
 


This, the 7870 is miles ahead of the 650Ti.
 
Agreed with the above, Skyrim is a CPU dependent game and any old budget 7870 can run it well provided your CPU is strong

Hell why not go for this? It's a 7870 Tahiti LE, better than a regular 7870 and should really be called a 7930, all that and it's only 140 bucks after MIR, if that's not bang for buck I don't know what is.
