Depends on what type of games you plan on playing. You should be able to build a beast for way less that 3500 though. What are you trying to play? If you build you own, which isn't too tough you can save a lot of cash.
Fuck dual cards and cooling...that shits for bragging. You can make a bad ass box that can run everything listed without that trash. Save you a ton of money too. New Egg is a great company to order from. I've built two systems using them, and have had good experiences.
Fuck those douche bags. They are more than likely using moms credit card to buy their shit. You seem to be a little smarter than that.

I have bought/built gaming rigs for years now, and this is my advice:Always go for the middle price class, don't spend a LOT of extra money to get a little extra performance. In your case that means drop the liquid cooling, solid state drive and dual graphic cards. I'd skip the blu ray burner as well, but perhaps you've got a use for it.Why drop the SSD? Because you can't really use it for your games, because one game can take up tens of Gigs of space by itself. So you end up spending hundreds of dollars, just so you save a couple of seconds on your Windows start-up time.Why not take dual video cards? First of all because it is overkill (unless you plan on playing on three 24" screens or something). Second because your video card is one of the first components that gets outdated and will need to be replaced.
honestly, this doesn't make sense because all the games are also made for old ass ps3 and xbox 360. yes they look a bit better on a high end pc, but not too much. you should wait until the new consoles come out and the bar is set way higher again. and even then buying the best of the best makes no sense for gaming, as it is only a few % better than something much cheaper. and it will not be the best of the best after a few months anymore anyway. crysis 1 was the best game graphics wise ever and it didn't sell too well because they didn't release it for the weak consoles. now that they had to make crysis 2 for the weak ass xbox 360 in order to make a profit, the game was nothing special for high end pc standards anymore. are you willing to pay $3000 to play the upcoming crysis 3 just a bit better than niggas who play it on the weak ass xbox 360 that costs like $250? if no, don't do it. simple as that. ain't nothing better than crysis out there anyways (strictly technical I mean... the game is not really fun imo)
If I got dual gtx 680s wouldn't that prevent me from upgrading my video card for a while? I usually don't upgrade my computer till it gets pretty laggy on medium settingsAs for the solid state, I'm getting it, before SSD the hard drive disk was one of the bottlenecks, plus I can use it for work, because I use multiple virtual machines for work.And the blu ray burner I'm gonna either rip the ones I have, or burn the ones I've downloadedI'm getting a 512 SSD so I prob run out of space that quick, and all my data is gonna be on my reg hardrive,But I am wondering about the videocard, would one non liquid cooling video card last long as a dual liquid cooling video card? I really don't plan to upgrade till 5-8 years later if I get mY build
