Would like help in knowing parts to buy for a new rig with a budget of 2.3k~
-rig mainly for playing games and watching videos.
-want it to support future upcoming games like watchdogs.
-playing games like battlefield 4, arma 3 and skyrim.
-Need wifi, monitor, os
-would hope that the rig can last a few years of gaming without upgrading

Please give me recommendation(s).
