Not good because your spending $2100 for the gaming equivalent of about $700

That's not true and you know it.
OP, it would make a great productivity machine, but you didn't mention what you'll be using it for. It might be perfect for you or not suit your needs at all.

Its going to be a gaming PC that I hope to last me at least 3 years running high-ultra settings.

Yeah, you're spending all the money in the wrong places. What site are you using to build this, what's your budget, and are you willing to buy the parts individually to build it yourself? You'll get a lot more for your money if you build it yourself.

Cyberpowerpc.com Im will to spend somewhere between $1500-$2000. Actually if you can find something in the $1000-$1500 range that would be awesome but I want something that would last me at least 3-5 years. And I REALLY would prefer not having to build it since I am such a rookie at it.

That's as good a result as I could get. It's still absurdly overpriced and the part selection is awful. Do you know someone who would assemble the parts for you if you ordered them individually?
