What are the BEST Gaming PC Specs?

TurtlefulN

If you had a budget of... idk... let's say $2,000. What is the best (top performance) gaming PC parts/specs that you would get?

Answer
BEST GAMING DESKTOP PC BUILD:

FACT: INTEL IS A MUCH BETTER PROCESSOR FOR GAMING THAN ANY AMD.
See here:
http://www.cpubenchmark.net/high_end_cpus.html

Processor: New 3rd generation Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor - $239.99
Or 2nd generation Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor - $204.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072
According to most people, the i5-2500K is still considered the best gaming processor, better than i5-3570K.
Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Pro3 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard - $119.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157297
After market CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper EVO - $34.99 (Stock Intel cooler sucks and it's noisy too)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099
Memory (RAM): G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM 1600MHz - $46.99

Graphics Card: 1GB GDDR5 EVGA GeForce GTX560 Ti (Fermi) - $229.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130604
Hard Drive: 1TB Seagate Barracuda SATA III (6.0Gb/s), 7200rpm, 64MB Cache - $99.99

Operating System (OS): Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64-bit OEM - $99.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116986

TOTAL: $974.90 to $1,019.90
All prices are in $USD and in the USA, as of end of April 2012, they might be slightly different one way or the other by now.

To make that the best, replace the graphics card with a 2GB EVGA or ZOTAC GeForce GTX680, and replace the 1TB Seagate Barracuda SATA III (6.0Gb/s), 7200rpm, 64MB Cache with a 240GB Patriot Wildfire SSD SATA III (6.0Gb/s) to use for OS, system updates, programs, software and games installation, add two 2TB Seagate Barracuda SATA III (6.0Gb/s), 7200rpm, 64MB Cache for more file storage room.
Total price should be well under $2,000, my guess is around $1,600.

Anyone mind helping me? I have....

The game I have played are, Dungeon Siege I-II, Diablo II, World Of Goo, PS1 Games, and alot of mmo games, such as 2 Moons, Shaiya, WoW (eww) WAR, (nice, but I hate to pay) Flyff, Fiesta, Archlord, Perfect World, and a lot of others....but if anyone could help me find a few that don't take a lot to run, that would be great. They don't have to be online either.
