New build comparison

I am upgrading to an intel system and would like feedback on the performance difference in gaming (Current system runs BF3 playable on low setting, approx 30fps). And is that a good price for such a system? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the post format. Current item is 1st on each line followed by new component with cost.

Price checks arent allowed from other websites so we cant help you with that spec. Not that it looks good for the money anyways.

I take it you require a new HDD, DVD-RW etc. You've chosen a **** power supply and 12GB RAM won't work as the RAM controller works in dual channel.

Sorry i didnt realise being new here though i accept your point. However i quote "Not that it looks good for the money anyways" is a little uncalled for i was asking for friendly advice, a simple i think you could find better components for less etc would have been welcome. My main question was how will the new pc fair against my current one? i did not list a DVDRW as i already own one and the psu i have 3years trouble free service 600w is more than enough, and i listed a Solid State Drive i have a mechanical drive. thanks for the information.
