Would this PC run most modern games well?

I'm building a gaming PC but don't have that much money to spend. My budget is around $800. I could probably spend a little more if I absolutely needed to. I'm looking to play games like Bioshock Infinite, Arma 2, DayZ, Skyrim on the highest settings with good framerates. Would this PC be OK for my needs?

@HeyyScott Really? Lowest/medium? What piece of hardware is limiting me?

@firo40 I was checking some benchmarks and saw that the 660 ti played lots of modern games at about 60 fps on highest settings at 1920x1080 resolution. Is this wrong?

Actually more like med/high setting with stable fps.
The 660ti.
 


I have a 660ti and you are incorrect. I can max most games that are 1+ years old like skyrim easily. Arma 2 will run at high/max. DayZ will run at medium because it is coded so poorly. Bioshock infinite will max.

All these are at 1080p 60fps locked.

I was more thinking of games in the in the line of BF4,Crysis.etc
 


Those will easily run at a mix of high and max. I can run bf4 at mostly ultra with no AA or anything like that.

How? Most people with 660ti run games like BF4 on med/high with decent fps. What fps are you getting when playing on those settings? Surely not 60fps+
 
I am locked at 60fps. Not FULL ultra. One or two things turned down to high like shadows.

Hit youtube. Plenty of people play at ultra with a 660ti. IT play LOCKED at 60fps no matter what, play half ultra half high. Don't forget that the CPU matter ALOT in BF. An fx6300 + 660ti will NOT perform the same as an i5 + 660ti.
