im getting a big payment in july and im looking to buy a computer that will run shogun 2, empire total war, black and white 2, possible WoW, Oblivion and the newly announced Skyrim on medium to high or possibly highest settings here are the Specs required for the games. (not sure if it is to get maximum quality however.
_________________________________________________________________________
Shogun 2 (not sure what a 2nd generation processor is but..)
2nd Generation Intel® Core™i5 processor (or greater), or AMD equivalent

AMD Radeon HD 5000 and 6000 or Nvidia GT 240 series graphics cards or equivalent DirectX 11 compatible graphics card

So are you goin to purchase the pc now or in July, becuase if it is in July there will be a few new releases of pc components by then, and it would be best to ask about that time, however if you want to purchase a pc now, and maybe use the finance option buy now and pay 6-12 later, then you could do that.
There are two spec below, the first is a cheaper option, at the lower limit of your buget and the second one is a bit more expensive.
