Help with new build to replace current computer

   Budget:

[Would like to stay at the lower end of 3k]

Expectations:

[Outperform or at least match my current computer (when it was in working condition). Would love it to "turn heads" ]

Usage:

[I play a LOT of heroes of the storm, WOW, BF4, Evolve, Ect. I Almost always listen to spotify while playing. I have razer comms team viewer, virus protections, cloud backups, curse, and skype open all the time. I have a synology server which im almost ALWAYS transferring things to and from while doing things.   ]

Special Needs:

[I need something that is hardy! my old computer had nothings but problems after about a year of working fine. Within two weeks my PSU, two hard drives, and a fan broke. All for different reasons. Would like something that turns heads and i prefer liquid cooling for most of my things (gets VERY hot in my gaming room during the summer) I store most movies and other things on my NAS but i would prefer to have maybe two 1tb HDDs in raid? (not including any SSDs i would have). I do a lot of programming and game testing for people. So that involves recording things while not adding lag. I run two monitors and a 1000+w stereo system.
