[QUOTE="Midna, post: 4117286, member: 122809"] You don't need water cooling. Nobody needs water cooling. If you do need water cooling, it means you jumped the gun and bought a graphics card before it's technology was efficient enough for normal use. You can definitely get a graphics card that can do Skyrim and BF3 and be passively cooled. As for i7, don't do it. The difference between the i5 2500k and the i7 2600k is basically a slightly higher clock speed on the i7 and the i5 not being able to do hyperthreading. The latter bit is useful to almost no one, and certainly not a gamer. The i5 2500k is about the point where going any higher starts to diminish value for what you're paying. The RAM is also a tad overkill. I'd get a mobo with 4~ RAM slots and just fill two of them up with dual 4GB sticks. You'll be ready for a quick upgrade if you ever need it. Oh and one last thing. Get a nice PSU. That's important. Everything in your PC relies on the PSU. Higher wattage is better. Much better. [url="http://tinyurl.com/falconguide%20"]http://tinyurl.com/falconguide [/url] That's the /g/entleman's guide. It's a good resource. Either use that to pick out parts from newegg, or find a reliable parts store in your city and get them to help you. I'm lucky enough to have several NCIX locations here. [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
