at first look i would say the gtx 460 is not enough for BF3,i have a gtx 560ti and feel that this should be a minimum card for this game,i find it has low frame rates on very high quality,so i often run it on medium to give me smoother frame rates,the reat of the gear looks ok,if you go for a card that is gtx 560 or higher,i would use a quality 650watt psu or more..
