  • Answer:

    Well, everything is perfect, you will be getting a great gaming PC which will never lag on games like BF3. It will be capable of running all high end games on Ultra settings at 60 FPS. But your current 650W smps is not sufficient for core i5 and 7950 3 GB card, You need at least 850W smps to run all the devices properly and smoothly. Get this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139015 and you will be fine. Rest depends on you. Hope this helps!!! 5 years of gaming, hardware and software experience
