Now the main thing that I want out of this build is to be able to play GW2, D3, and Skyrim maxed out. BF3 (and others) medium and up. Will all these parts work for that? and anyway to cut the fat to save some bucks? Thaanks!

Yes, it will all work nicely. What size screen do you use?

 

[xBUNx]

As of now I want to use my 32" HDTV, but later on I want to get a 1080 monitor

Yes, a 6870 will put out the graphics performance that you need for a single monitor. I have a 6870, and can average ~40 fps on BF3 with most things turned on on a 1920 x 1080 22" monitor.

What CPU are you using?

I'd swap the PSU to a Corsair TX 650 and pump up the GPU to a 7950. However, that build is close to mine and it will certainly push those games you mentioned. By maxed, you may have to drop the AF/AA down a bit.
