Additional Comments: Already made a list of parts, can you please check if it could play bf3 at high setings?

Build for now:

Motherboard: ASRock H61M-GS B3 iH61

CPU: Intel Pentium G630

Ram: 4gb Corsair Value Select

HDD: Got a spare 250gb and a 160gb hdd lying around so they will be used for now.

Dvd Burner: any generic

GPU: Radeon 6950 most likely (Sapphire OC 2GB DDR 5)

Will this build centered around a G630 and 6950 be able to play most games at high at 1080P?
 
the pentium g series will generally push enough for most games with a 6950 except cpu demanding ones. so when you stated BF3 as one of your most important ones, get ready to feel heavy dips in fps when on high or ultra settings in a full 64 man map. other than that, the 6950 can carry most of the work in just about 99% of games.
