This is copy paste from all Ive been lookign at and i wnated to give all of the info!

Ive also checked on gamedebate.com and it looks like i should be able to run just cause 2 at highest 60 fps (800 by 600 because i dont enhoy big screens) and skyrim at ultra and crysis and at least at medium to ultra
 
At that resolution almost anything could run Crysis at High settings.

For the budget you could do better though, check out my $650.

Drop the 6870 down to the 6770 because it's all you'll need.

The i5 2400 will give you way more performance on the CPU side plus you'll be $10 below your budget by switching to the 6770 and using that promo code that ends today. I'd get the GPU today if anything before the promo ends.
