Get a GTX 560 Ti, it's optimal for BF3. Keep the i5 2500k, it's super close to the i7 2600k in performance, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. With the GTX 560 Ti, get a 1920x1080 monitor. If you want to stick with that monitor, the GT 440 should be enough. But remember, with a GTX 560 Ti, you can run it on high settings very smoothly.

Gt nvidia cards are really entry level graphic cards not good for some of the newer games like bf3
agree a gtx 560 ti or a amd hd 6950 is better to run games from your specs at high settings the cost is about 260 dollars, and 6-8 gb of ram. need not to change anything else the motherboard is great, the processor is great for gaming, psu is not a overkill in case later if you wnat to go to a amd hd 6970 or a gtx 580

Your GPU should be fine for your resolution. However, I REALLY recommend getting a 1080p monitor to enjoy the newest games in their full glory and also change your GT 440 to a GTX 560 Ti or HD 6950. GTX 570 or HD 6970, if you can afford them.

I have the gtx 560ti and for the most part I am able to run almost all games on high and a few select games on ultra. You will definately need to upgrade to a min of a 560ti if you expect to play the latest games on high-ultra. Might want to get a new monitor also cuz that resolution is horrendous otherwise a gfx upgrade is kinda pointless as that card will prob be able to run at high at those resolutions(wont look good though). (Get on at 1920x1080 resolution).

Just change your graphics card from the gt 440 to a gtx 560 and you're good to go.
My gtx 560 can run bf3 at about max at 1980x1080. So it's safe to say that it'll run on yours.

those are intense end video games and also you'll want intense end platforms. once you're observing most inexpensive that can do it, you won't be able to arise with the money for it. besides the undeniable fact that, in case you'd be satisfied with intense settings, that is less costly. contact me and that i will help you out.
