How will this rig do?

How will this rig do in most games?

Intel i5-3450
16 GB DDR3 1333mhz RAM
GTX 560 ti Battlfield 3 Edition

Good,dont mind the i5,99% of today's game don't require a stronger processor than that(but i prefer the i7,my regimentation is i7 2600k or the 2700k ).Also cut the ram,all you need is 6-8 ram,or even better buy 4gb DDR5 1600GHz ram.You have an excellent graphic card there.The battlefield version might just be a 2gb DDR5 version of the Normal GTX 560 ti,but it doesn't matter both are excellent and will perform very good.Another good thing is that this card works in SLI and if in future some game requires better graphics you will just put a another 560ti and whola! You got your self a machine that should perform very well for the next 2-4 years!

That was my advice,and for your question,it will do very well.

And if i may ask,the cost of this desktop and its other features just so i can tell you if the price is realistic or not.

Oh and one more thing that i5 you mentioned it has,it doesn't really matter if its third generation and has ivy bridge.You could get a first or second generation i7 at the same price which are quite stronger.Again not that you need any more extra power for today's games that the i5-3450 has,but still i think if you wen't for an i7 you will gain performance possibly needed for future games.
Here compare them yourself

I can snatch the computer for $600 and the card for $205 with mail-in rebate plus a free copy of BF3!

If i understood right its 800$ plus A Free Bf copy? Its a good offer for an excellent rig.
One more suggestion here a link it is 800$ not counting the monitor ,it has a slightly stronger processor and a really powerful graphic card,if its about gaming amd's graphics definitely offer better performance compared to Nvidia,but lack durability and are known to use up a lot of power and heat,but nothing a liquid cooler cant solve,also it has G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory,which i think will perform better than the overused 1333 regular ram,even if its 16gbts.But i don't know if they assemble the desktop on this site or only arrange links for you do buy each part separably and assemble the desktop yourself or take it to a professional place where they do that,if so it might not be worth the effort,but if they assemble it this is a better offer.

Good Luck my friend,and may your machine last long and perform well,which ever you choose to buy.

(both rigs will tear,all of todays games and games to date up to 2012,based on most of theirs predicted system requirements,so don't worry even if you have a problem playing a game on ultra somewhere around mid 2013,just buy another 560ti and ram it into sli with the other one and it will tear again,you have a lots of ram,a little bit of an overkill on that side so that will not be a problem for a long long time,and games never seem to require uber processors,so you will be just fine)
