Why would you spend that much on a rig when it will be outdated in a matter of months, and a system of equal performance to cost 1/5th in around/less than a year?

I'll help, though. Just give me a website, and I'll tell you what to order.
(I'm asking for a site because you don't live in the US, and I don't really know of any sites of the top of my head that ship to Denmark lol)
 
Intel Core i7-950 3.0GHz 8MB S-1366
ASUS P6T SE X-58 S-1366
12GB DDR3 1333MHz Kingston (6x2GB)
2048MB XFX ATI HD6970 880M DDR5 PCI-E
SEAGATE Barracuda 5900.3 2TB HDD SATA
Antec Nine Hundred Two u/PSU
1000W Energon EPS-1000 140mm
Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme Rev2 S1366

22x Samsung DVD/RW DL Sort SATA

2000 $
 
Very expensive for the amount of performance you're going to get. That's only worth about $1500 max.
 
Im looking for something that can run highest settings of shogun 2 and crysis 2, and above.

@Mad pistol

What cooling system do you recommend? having trouble taking the heat on my current PC
 
Panzer, you could go with a sandy build because the the 1156 are pretty much outdated now since sandys are out.

You could get a i7-2600K instead of the 950 since it's old now and i7 2600k is better but it's up to you.

The videocard, I can't help you out there.

You really don't need 12GB of ram it's a waste, 4 to 6 GB of ram will be fine for you and you can always add more if you feel the need to.

Everything else i'd ask phobus since he would know, He's pretty good about that stuff.

If you're going to spend +1500 dollars:

i5 2500k
one of the P67 mobos
560-580 or 6950/70
~700W PSU corsair or another reputable brand
1tb f3 spinpoint
4-8GB XMS3 corsair
A case that you like
cheap dvd drive
One of Noctua's cooler if you're planning on doing some nice OC'ing

If you give us a website it'd be easier :)
