I know I have asked this alot, but this time, I got confirmation that it will be next week!
My current system:
Dell Optiplex 760
Core 2 Duo 3.0 GHz Processor
4x2GB DDR2 U6400 RAM
ATI Radeon 2400 Pro 256MB VRAM
SoundMAX HD Audio
WD Caviar Blue 250GB 3GB/s 7200RPM Hard Drive
Standard Dell HSF (yep, it is crap
Standard Dell 275W PSU (yep, it is crap)
As you can see, I REALLY need a new computer. I came to the conclusion that there is no point bothering to upgrade this current system, so a new build is in order.
This new build will be for moderate gaming, such as BF3 (non-competitive) and Skyrim. My budget is $1800 including Monitor, but not including OS, Keyboard, or Mouse. If possible, I will reuse the Hard Drive as well.
Right now, here is what I have:

http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0378096 ASUS P8Z68-V/Gen3
Anything to change? Thanks! I plan to OC to 4.5GHz and the GPU to 1GHz.
