I'm looking to upgrade my computer sometime in the 1st quarter of 2012 to play Skyrim, TOR, BF3, and Diablo 3, and perhaps one or two other titles. I'm keeping my case, monitor, keyboard, mouse, and hard drive, but I need a new Motherboard, Processor, Video Card, RAM, and PSU. What is everyone's recommenations to play the above games at recommended requirements level? (Think Inexpensive where possible).

Am I going to see you on the battlefield at the end of this month?

As much as I look forward to BF3, I don't buy games when they are launched. I'll get it on a steam sale just as everything else. Besides, I have way too much games and too little time nowadays.

I've decided to skip BF3 simply because of Origin's highly draconian rules.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. EA are not even releasing it on steam, and Origin sucks, which cooled my interest for BF3 considerably. I will probably still get it one day though.
