Simple question, in your opinion, how many frames per second could I get with this build on max settings in Skyrim?

(plus windows 7 home premium 64 bit)
All maxed i think about 80 fps average, That is on 1080p.
But if skyrim is the only game you wanna play i would it's say it overkill.
skyrim favors nvidia typically so a 660Ti might be a good option
How well would it run Metro 2033?
An A10-5800k will run skyrim on ultra with enb mods and metro 2033 on highest settings too so you will not have any issues.
(I have been playing both those games on a low resolution though.)
Cool beans. Thanks guys.
Metro Favors AMD cards But skyrims tends to favor Nvidia cards, So i personally would do somethign like this http://pcpartpicker.com/p/wRdX
The problem is that I live in Australia. I can't take advantage of newegg which seems to have lower prices and greater discounts than anywhere else. But if there are problems with parts, it would take months to get them travelling between countries, let alone the shipping costs.
I'll try to replicate that build using Australian sites, but I have a feeling that the cost will be significantly larger.
