Some edit on GPU choice, sorry that I didnt read carefully that u prefer Nvidia.
In terms of price over performance, 7870 XT is slightly better than gtx660.

For Battlefield3, medium setting should be ok for playing smoothly.

Can, but the game setting for playing smoothly I cant tell.
Since it is not yet release, people cant review it too.
With RM200 more you can try get Sapphire 7870 XT at RM849, that is slightly better than gtx660 and normal 7870.

With 1gb more bandwidth on graphic card will help in Anti Aliasing setup if not mistaken.
I get this info from previous post/other thread there's people mentioned about this. Can't remember well, please correct me if I'm wrong.
Other parts such as ram, motherboard don't affect the gaming much. Game's Resolution & quality rely mostly on graphic card and processor.

Tumpang for suggestion.
If he plans to buy it at kuching local shop, need to get about 5% more on current total cost on this build.
Plus, MSI mobo, FSP psu, Silverstone casing mostly not available in Kuching too. [Please correct me if I'm wrong]

From Viewnet and C-Zone [Compuzone]

Perhaps replace the mobo with gigabyte H77 one.
Casing you can survey in local shop to see what they have in stock, or you can try ask if they can help you order and ask how much the price & charges.
Most of the time price will differ around 5~10% depend on the price they offer you in local shops.

If you lazy to build yourself or wanna save cost on postage fee [Well those boxes for mobo, psu, gpu etc will be a few kilograms i suppose ], ask them build rig and send it via postage is way better.
You can try ask forum dealers to quote you the total cost +postage fee for specs that Cable707 suggested. Then compare to what local shops can offer you at the same price point.

Haha true. The only good thing is if anything bad happen to the pc you can send back for checking/warranty easier.
Last time I saw one of the local shop has Xigmatek/Enermax brand psu, not sure what series they are.

Yes the PSU will be able to support it, but it will be better to get a slightly better PSU for some headroom. Such as Enermax NAXN 550W RM215.

MSI GTX560 TI cost around RM600.
Overall performance is better than GTX650.

Here's one of the game showing the difference in fps:


However GTX560 Ti [148w] need more power than GTX650 [48w]:


At the same price point of GTX560 Ti, I will pick HD7850 since it offer better performance and less power consumption.
