hi guys, im wanting to buy a gaming setup for a really good price, could you tell me the best setups I could get for $1000/$1500/$2000.I want a liquid cooler, atleast 16gb of ram, and a 2tb hardrive atleast, and a really modern full tower case if possible white. I'm a normal gamer , might do some overclocking for the first time, lots of homework, internet browsing etc
