Processor: Intel I3 - 4130

Motherboard: Gigabyte B75M - D3H

RAM: Kingston 8 GB (2X4)

HDD: Seagate 500 GB

Graphics: EVGA 750 Ti

Power Supply Unit: Antec 650W

Cabinet: ANTEC

CPU Cooler: ANTEC C20

Monitor: LG - LED 15.6"

Others: Wirless Logitech Keyboard and Mouse (with mouse pad)

As per my budget, I've prepared my own list. Hope this can play games like Crysis 3 and BF4 in ultra/very high settings.

I'd recommend going with an AMD FX6300 instead of its Intel counterpart.

Why does everyone want to play Crysis on ultra? I guess I'll never understand.

You'll play those games on high.

1. The i3 4130 is not compatible with that motherboard. You need a LGA1150 motherboard.
2. There is literally $6 difference between the 500GB Seagate and the 1TB Seagate
3. Make sure the RAM is 1.5v
4. 650w is WAY overkill for that. 300-350w would be plenty and 380-450w would give a lot of overhead.
5. Stick with the i3 4130 over the FX6300
6. You cannot expect to play those titles on Ultra or even very high settings with a setup like that.

THe CPU being a hyperthreaded dual core is okay for gaming but not the best.The 750Ti is also a rather entry level - mid range card.For BF4 you will be fine on single player however at worst case scenarios like very populated servers your CPU bottleneck will cause the frames to drop.
For BF4 you will be able to manage 35+ fps on ultra (single player);
<link removed> (mind you this is with recording without you will get around 40+ fps)

For Crysis 3 around the same 40+ fps on ultra;

The video is with the 550Ti which is slightly weaker than 750Ti but you should get slighlty higher.
Proof that 550 Ti is less than yours;

If motherboard doesn't suit for that processor, can you help me on to choose a better one with same or similar pricing range?

+1 on that, your mobo is 1155 you need a 4th generation 1150 board for that which is not that far from a 1155s price,
May i suggest this perhaps;

This is cheaper than your 1155 (older generation motherboard) and has all the same features and has a newer chipset

You are looking for a B85 or H87 motherboard. Do you know how to use partpicker.com? It's as awesome tool to use.

I use assembleyourpc(dot)net. It helps me choose the parts of a CPU with price in INR as I'm from India.

And will this setup help me to play games on ultra settings?

Gamer2321, Will this motherboard with intel i3 4th generation and 750 ti evga be enough for playing games in high settings?

Edit: if this is going to bottleneck the games, then can you please suggest any other processor with motherboard?
