Hello everyone,
I will be buying 2 new gaming computers this week (one for me and one for the wife, of course ). I have come to the realization that there are some online stores that seem to be able to build me a computer for cheaper than I can buy the parts and put it together myself. This is the build I was looking at:

And here is a quick breakdown of the list:
Case: NZXT Tempest 210 Mid-Tower Gaming Case (Orange Color)

Cooling Fan: Corsair Hydro Series H60 High Performance Liquid Cooling System 120MM Radiator & Fan (Dual Standard 120MM Fans (Push-Pull) [+9])
Coolant for Cyberpower Xtreme Hydro Water Cooling Kits: Standard Coolant
Motherboard: [3-Way CrossFireX/SLI] Biostar Tpower X79 Intel X79 Chipset Quad Channel DDR3 ATX w/ UEFI Bios, Toverclocker, 7.1 HD Audio, GbLAN, SATA-III RAID, 3 Gen3 PCIe X16, 2 PCIe X1 & 1 PCI [-15]
Memory: 8GB (2GBx4) DDR3/2000MHz Quad Channel Memory [+48] (Corsair or Major Brand)

Operating System: None - FORMAT HARD DRIVE ONLY
Service: STANDARD WARRANTY: 3-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY PLUS LIFE-TIME TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Rush Service: NO; READY TO SHIP IN 10~15 BUSINESS DAYS
At the price of just around $1400, it seems to be noticeably cheaper than going through newegg. Here are my questions:
- Does this seem like a good buy for the price?
- Will this game support D3, WoW:MoP and CoD:BO2 at full max settings and resolution (single monitor)
- Any suggestions for changes in the build? (price limit around $1500 per computer (flexible))
Thanks!!!
