What is your CPU exactly? I doubt it would be too steady considering your CPU is a big drawback. I would suggest you try high settings if you want but I can't ever see more than 35/40FPS on BF4 and the same for the other games. Your GPU is perfect but that CPU though, would you not get an AMD FX series CPU? Like the FX-6300? Then overclock it and you will easily run BF4 on high settings 40FPS.

quite simply your old dual core, at 2.6ghz will hold back the performance of your GPU. It will bottleneck the GPU.

The 650ti Boost is a decent enough card. But with your old system, you won't get the full potential from the card.
I'm in the same boat, with a Q6600 and an older system. In their day, they were superb, but now not so superb. Am considering a system upgrade eg new CPU/mobo/ram, and maybe keeping a few bits from my current PC. Even though I have a quadcore CPU, and a GPU (560ti) with similar performance as the 650ti Boost, I'm struggling at medium level, with 40-50 fps (with some drops into the 30FPS area) on BF4.

I highly doubt you will be playing those games with that CPU.
