looks good other than the power supply could be a little better. Where are yo and where do you plan on buying the parts?

you also need a copy of windows.
 
I will be ordering them all online from newegg for a total of 1000 dollars including the windows 7 OS and what mid-low price range psu would you reccomend?
 
750W PSU is overkill for that build unless you're planning on getting two 6870s and Crossfiring. Something like a Corsair CX 600 would be more appropriate.

Other than that I'd say it's pretty good.
 
alright thanls, what kind of performance could you guess that I would get out of this build? perhaps a game life bf3 max? or would I need to up my budget more?
 
With the 6870 you won't be maxxing out Battlefield 3 I'm afraid unless you're playing at a really low resolution on a small monitor.
