well for highest settings on those games your going to need at least a GTS250 most cards like the higher end GTX cards are very expensive. As for the mobo and cpu i recommend MSI and a AMD phenom x4. Great value and speed. My bundle was just around 160 USD and it runs fast as hell. For the psu there is no need to go overboard just get a 650 or 700W from corsair (also pretty cheap). Other than that you can get standard cheap stuff like hard drives and such
