Could this system run games like bf4 on high settings?

Solution
yes it would but if I were you I would change out that xfx psu for a different brand of better quality those PSUs have been getting really bad reviews from everyone that I have seen commenting on pc builds

I agree with LilTwist on this one, all components are fine but I would also recommend a different power supply, a CoolerMaster 700w silent pro should do it, that's from personal experience

would you be able to add this psu
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152036

and this mobo
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130763&cm_re=1150-_-13-130-763-_-Product

and still be able to stay under 800

that mobo on that link I posted is one of the best micro atx mobos for overclocking and gaming just as long as you dont want to do sli or xfire. for the gaming series of msi mobos they use all military grade and tested components that perform better under stress if you ever decide to overclock and do extreme gaming

I would say yes because even if you dont want to oc it still comes with really good gaming features and also will last longer than alot of other motherboards because of the military grade and tested high test stress components inside of it
