New Build - Thoughts, Suggestions, etc

[PushingButtons]

Hi everyone.

I've been perusing the topics here as I'm wanting to get into PC gaming. I've searched through past threads to garner as much info as I could. Only thing is, I'm completely clueless as to what it all means.

I managed to grab this list from NeoGaf and I'm curious as what you all think of it.

I will not be using the PC for anything besides gaming. And I would like to run Battlefield 3, Skyrim, The Witcher 2 at some pretty high settings. (Or at least higher than the default).

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Bumping this as I came across the preferred template to use around here!

Additional Comments: (I'm completely new to this. So as long as I can run The Witcher 2, Battlefield 3, and Skyrim using higher quality settings then that's what I'm looking for.)

Any help?

I'd personally go for the F3 instead of the F4 because it's a faster (i.e. non-"green" drive), but the parts list looks good.

Case?
