Okay I may be being a bit too optimistic here but I was HOPING to be able to max out the settings on SOME games. I'll be playing stuff like BF3, Skyrim, Starcraft 2 and obviously any future releases. If anyone can tell me if my spec is capable of this it would be appreciated! (And any changes you'd make). Thanks.
