Will this build run Skyrim, BF3 and D3?

[bossjason]

Hi All!

The corporation of my wife had a raffle and she won a $900 dollar credit on tiger direct, i think they buy their hardware there. She has to put in the item and item number from tiger direct and the H.R. department will order it for her with free 1-day shipping/tax free lucky me.

Approximate Purchase Date: As soon as i get a nice list


Budget Range: 900 max and shipping and tax is not an issue


System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Skyrim, BF3 and D3, and the basic stuff


Parts Not Required:
Monitor - we have two 24' LCD monitor and 42 inch HDTV
Western Digital
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136313 -- i have 3 of these to spare


Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Tigerdirect only since its credit

Country of Origin: United States

Parts Preferences: whatever will make this better


Overclocking: Yes if possible


SLI or Crossfire: In the future


Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080 up


Additional Comments: Noise is not an issue. I would like to run those games at least high settings if possible max. Me and my wife are both casual gamers but we only have ps3 and xbox, this will be our first gaming pc

should work fine. the 750W PSU is a little overkill, but should be good if you ewant to crossfire a few months down the road

i followed your advice and got a corsair 850w for additional cash, and might buy additional 6950 2gb for a trio of screens. Hope it arrives Alive ^o^
