What will you be doing with this PC? Be as specific as possible, and include specific games or programs you will be using.

It will be playing my Steam Library. I would say the most demanding will be Skyrim with a whole bunch of graphical mods. I would like to have it at the maximum setting while playing. I also have a tendency of having a large amount of tabs opened in Chrome, so having them be open in the background while playing is a must.

What is your maximum budget before rebates/shipping/taxes?

$2000

When do you plan on building/buying the PC? Note: beyond a week or two from today means any build you receive will be out of date when you want to buy.

Possibly next week, if not then, next month

What, exactly, do you need included in the budget? (Tower/OS/monitor/keyboard/mouse/etc)

Need a tower (full sized black prefered), OS, a nice mechanical keyboard with volume and media control would be nice, and if there's enough money left over a 21x9 monitor

Which country (and state/province) will you be purchasing the parts in? If you're in US, do you have access to a Microcenter location?

Yes and NJ/US

If reusing any parts (including monitor(s)/keyboard/mouse/etc), what parts will you be reusing? Brands and models are appreciated.

An old cd/dvd reader/burner, media card reader, maybe a floppy drive, a dell 1366 x 768 monitor, mouse

Will you be overclocking? If yes, are you interested in overclocking right away, or down the line? CPU and/or GPU?

CPU down the line maybe

Are there any specific features or items you want/need in the build? (ex: SSD, large amount of storage or a RAID setup, CUDA or OpenCL support, etc)

SSD for OS, large HDD for storage, OpenCL support

Do you have any specific case preferences (Size like ITX/microATX/mid-tower/full-tower, styles, colors, window or not, LED lighting, etc), or a particular color theme preference for the components?

Full-tower, black or gunmetal, windowed, LED (red/pink prefered). I mean if you can keep the color theme that would be great

Do you need a copy of Windows 7 or 8.1 included in the budget? If you do need one included, do you have a preference for one or the other?

Yes, no real preference, but if I would have to say, possible 7 for more compatibility.
