@MstrMnyBgs: 660 ti will push most games near or at 60 at 1080p on near max settings. You can't get high AA unless you have the really high end cards. There are some games that you may need to drop the resolution on to maintain those 60 frames like Far Cry 3 which I had to drop down to 1600 x 900

Ugh, the wait is going to kill me now especially now that I know Alex made it for the deliberations. These kinds of years where there are not any "juggernaut" kind of games that you can expect to dominate a GoTY discussion tend to be the best because other "smaller" games get a chance in the spotlight.

Great list! I still think my title is better but fuck yeah Darkness 2, Sleeping Dogs, and even a Gears 3 mention! Also I kinda want to follow you again for tossing in the Bronson track. Nicolas Winding Refn knows what a fucking good movie soundtrack is.

You're set with that. The 660ti will be able to max BF3 at ultra and 1920 x 1080 at well over 30FPS. It won't get you a steady 60, but turn down one or two settings and you can do that.

It's a good build and will definitely run Far Cry on High, maybe even Ultra at 1920 x 1080 if you're happy with 30FPS (I am usually but it's a personal preference to a lot of people as to whether or not they're OK with it. Most people tend to be though, even if you get a lot of PC elitists telling you otherwise).

EDIT: Just clicked the link and price seems a little steep but if you're not willing to build your own, it's probably fine. I only know the price of individual parts but I wouldn't change a thing about that machine. Just make sure you shop around for prices if you can find the exact same build elsewhere (those are pretty common parts so there should be loads online).

Or you can sacrifice some higher fidelity for better performance like playing FC 3 at 1600 x 900 (which is what I did with my own 660 ti) I just personally prefer 60 or as close to 60 as I can get over visual flair.

Just looked at the price and unless you really plan on upgrading that thing in the future I suggest you look elsewhere cuz that price is steep for what you getting even for prebuilt PC's. I suggest a high end Alienware X51 if you're not worried about having a limited upgrade path plus the tower is a lot smaller.
