Alright, I am a high rating pvp player playing WoW and LoL, so I need a computer that makes those games run very smooth. I have been looking around the internet, and I saw Ibuypower and etc, and I decided to make my own. I have zero experience making gaming pcs, but I want one. I have a budget of around $1500, and I want the best gaming pc config, that I can get with that. I am looking for help here, if someone can post me configs and maybe help me install it, I will be internally grateful. If the config goes a little over 1500, it is not a huge concern, but please help a newbie make a strong gaming pc

this should be able to get 60+ fps on all those game with high/ultra, though you might want to oc that gpu to 1.2 ghz right out of the box.

-Great overclocking potential.
-A GTX 760 is all you need to play all of the games you listed on ultra.
-Allows for SLI in the future when your computer starts to age.
-I didn't put in a 256gb SSD because it's mainly focused on two games, so only those games should go on it.
