    1)Eh, depends on the game..

    2)Any PC of the last 5 years can do that ;/

    3)Eh..Same as above, nothing hard.

    Generally a budget that high can create a beast PC, it all depends on what you are gonna play.

    If you want to play WoW , 1000$ can cover it easily, hell 500$ covers it if you turn of Shadows and some other dumb options.

    If you want to play Battlefield 423523 in 3 years from now at High, thats a different thing.

    Give more info as what do you want the PC to do, before throwing your money at it.

    1500-2000 will give you reasonable high end computer assuming we're talking about USD and not pebbles or some other currency. Final price depends on the emphasis between WoW and other games since WoW doesn't need very high end graphics card while BF does, and that is the most expensive part.
    Never going to log into this garbage forum again as long as calling obvious troll obvious troll is the easiest way to get banned.
    Trolling should be.

    Things to note with my build, PSU and motherboard support SLI so if you don't care about that there is a little bit of money to save there. Includes 2 monitors, second one could be something cheaper if it's just for browsing and such. No OS, ~$90 extra if you need one.
