It's good enough for high settings at 1080p. Do add the extra 4GB.

You will be able to scoot by. The i3-3220 wont be the most ideal CPU to use but its certaintly not going to prevent you from playing.

If your cpu is at least recent as of the last 3 years it shouldn't bottleneck you to a noticeable extent. I say it's sufficient for BF3 or BF4

You'll be able to play BF4 on ultra settings at 1366x768 with 60 fps

Yes I agree.

Your cpu is not weak. Often people see i3 and assume it sucks. the i3 3220 is a popular choice for budget gaming systems and will go very well with your gtx 660.

Thats nice to hear..Thank you >>>>

You're very welcome. Please pick a solution...

And another thing - consider overclocking, if you ever feel your CPU is holding you back.

aevm · Jan 18, 2014

Have you picked a power supply yet? You need something rated at least 450W. I'd go with the XFX 550W for example, it's good quality and gives you room for overclocking or extra storage or fans, etc.

oczdude8 :

That's coool thank u for ur thoughts,of the subject,it helps a lot.....

Vana Ivan Pandovski · Jan 18, 2014

aevm :

Yes for power supply i have the Hantol Atx 685W max ,so i ll guess is this good ,i dont know how real power delevers but if it 's 685 the max i gues provides 550-600 real watts.or i don t know .waht u think of the power supply tell me i need to know if it s good.....Thanks A looootttt...

aevm · Jan 18, 2014

Well, it's not one of the best brands, but it will do. It certainly delivers more than you'll need.

Vana Ivan Pandovski · Jan 18, 2014

aevm :

Yeah tnx so for Motherbord i dont have some extreme or to good i have already picked the 60 Euros
GIGABYTE - H61M-SP2-DVI- 2x 8 GBs Slots for RAM DDR3 and suports WINs 8 and all up to i7 cores to 4-the generation.only LGA 1155 Socket....So that s it all the parts.....Combining all this parts Power,MB,CPU,GPU,RAM ofcours 4 GB more,i should be fine..right..

Thanks you so much to now you helped a looot Thanks

aevm · Jan 18, 2014

Yeah, Gigabyte (and Asus) make some of the best motherboards these days. Good luck with the build! Don't forget to wear a wrist strap and to lock the pets out...

add more 4 gb ram and upgrade your cpu to intel core i5 or get a amd fx 8320 just the same price as i3

Is i3 CPU good for Bf3 and Bf4 gaming with next configs
