I'm not sure if all of it is compatible.
Will this Gpu be adequate for gaming at these resolutions?
Help me at out so I can order it soon. Thanks.

It's all compatible but my biggest question is why are you going with a cheap H61 when you could spend a little bit more on the motherboard and get a Z68?

The i3-2120 is a really good CPU, I'm not sure how it performs on games but it handles everything else I throw at it fine. It's preferred that you should get a minimum quad core for most of the newer games like Skyrim or BF3. You'd be wise to look at the i5-2400.

The 6850 is a great GPU for the money but I personally prefer Sapphire over HIS.

What's your overall budget? I could probably suggest a few things to improve it for the cost.

I would go with either of the motherboards I listed as they are Z68 chipsets and will be better for your build.
The power supply is a special and I don't know how long it will be there but it allows you to pick up a really good psu for a really good price. The psu that you selected does not come with a power card and that is one of the things about earthwatts is that they want you to use a power cord from your previous psu (if you had one) but the one on sale has a rebate plus a promo code it is an outstanding deal.
The video card is one of the parts that you could try and get as much card as possible if you can afford 6870 then that's good but if you can afford a 6950 that would be even better.

Naturally the choices are your to make but I would act on the power supply soon to take advantage of that deal.
