Additional Comments: Want to max out games. Starcraft 2 is the most important game I'm considering. I currently don't plan on overclocking, Crossfire, etc, because it seems too complicated and not really necessary, in my opinion. I just dont want to run the risk of messing things up. This stance may change, though.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Giving parents my old computer, so upgrading for myself.
