System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming 90% / Movies 5% and surfing 5%

Do you need to buy OS: No (Still have a copy of W7)
Please note that if you're using an OEM license of Windows, you will need a new one when buying a new motherboard.
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg.ca / Ncix.ca are the sites I would like to use to purchase.

Parts Preferences: Currently using ATI/AMD but am open to all options.
Overclocking: Maybe and yea, not a problem
SLI or Crossfire: Maybe and yea
Your Monitor Resolution: Currently 1680x1050
Additional Comments: As of this moment the main games I am playing are: Skyrim, Farcry3, Battlefield 3, Various MMO's. I apologise as I don't have anything picked out right now so I cannot post what items or parts I am interested in.
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: Getting issues with Skyrim from time to time (ie: stuttering, likewise for Farcry3 and even BF3). Things overall feel a little slow from time to time too.
P.S. Sorry for the abrupt possibly rude method of my message as I am in a slight hurry, and I realize these do take time to assess and help. So for what its worth I am grateful for any help! Happy Holidays!
