Im under a budget , and my question is.

im going with a i5 3570k and a amd radeon 7770.

Pretty much im going to play BF3 most of the time,at 1080p (auto settings) i have seen on youtube it was round +60 fps and thats what i want the smoothness of the game, and its pretty good for the price and ..is it worth to actually buy it now ..but thats what i can pay for now.

 

 

Feel free to leave any suggestion.

thank you.

That's quite imbalanced. You're betting off investing more into your gpu and getting a cheaper cpu. 

The 3570k is good for gaming but what makes it good is that it can support a strong gpu, which the 7770 is not.

I don't really know im just going to stick with INTEL CPUS ..and this one is the best for now .

And i have seen alot of 7770 it still does the job well..im not the type of person that love to play on MAX settings u know.

OK i might be upgrading only for the 7850 2gb.

what do you guys think ?

Do you need just the CPU and GPU or do you need all of the parts for 600$?

No just the CPU and GPU.

Then get an i5 3570k and a HD 7970. You will also get three game with the 7970. And will still have a few dollars to buy yourself some building snacks. :P Also a 7950 has similar performance when overclocked for 100$ less.
