At 1080p, that build will crush any of those games. At 1440p you'd be running at 50+fps. I know this, because I have a VERY similar build (check member configuration). I went with 7, because I didn't and don't like 8. Get windows 7 OEM. I think you'll be very happy with that build.

I would probably modify a few things, but not due to any of the parts being poor quality/choice.

-better cooling
-better motherboard
-better cooler on video card
-cheaper ram
-has a SSD to speed things up
-cheaper case, but you get a SSD that makes up for the difference
-smaller psu as 650w isnt needed
-the OSes are about the same, just that windows 8 is faster overall. you can download ex7forw8 (google it) to get a windows 7 interface on windows 8. just that you will need to obtain a copy of windows 7 onto a usb (microsoft can give you a 30 day trial of windows 7, which wil work out for this operation)
