Hi, everyone.. I'm not a tech genius so I'd appreciate all the help you experts can give me.
I want to build a brand new gaming pc, and it will be used solely for gaming, I'll be playing games like gw2 and bf3 on a 1920x1080 screen. I hope to get high to max setting graphics. For the computer I will need all components, excluding keyboard, mouse, OS, monitor, etc. I have about $1600 SGD to spend, but I can go up to $2000 if need be.

If possible, please try to refer to this list for prices and availability.. http://www.fuwell.com.sg/uploads/misc/Fuwell220912.pdf , where all prices are in singapore dollars.

Any help at all is appreciated. I'll be using a windows 7 home premium 64-bit for the OS.

I'll give it a go

Asus Z77 M Pro + i5 3570K = $519 MB + CPU
CM Hyper 212 turbo = $75 Cooler
WD Caviar Green 2TB = $135 HDD
OCZ Vertex 4 128GB = $169 SSD
G Skill RipJawX 1600 8GB = $78 RAM
Corsair Carbide 400r = $138 Case
Corsair AX750 = $229 PSU
Samsung S243S 24x = $28 DVD
Asus DCII TOP GTX 670 2GB = $659 GPU

Total: = $2030

OK, I went a little over but you could cut out the SSD if you don't care about boot times and the case is completely your choice. You could get away with a different GPU as well depending on your choices. The power supply is one of the best and should last. Personally, these prices seem a little high but that may the exchange rate.

This beast should easily eat up BF3 no problems. Hope this helps.
