On the 26th I am getting a custom built computer that was used for AutoCAD 2010. I'm getting it from a family member, he spent atleast 1000$ on it and it was used for 3D modeling and such. I am not interested in using it for AutoCAD, but for gaming. I play games like World of Warcraft, Call of Duty, SWTOR, League of Legends, etc. Are the specs on a 1000$+ custom built computer for AutoCAD typically good for gaming?

I was wondering, if anyone would mind naming a Gaming Computer that can play games like say Far Cry 2, Crysis 2, Battlefield Bad Company 2, or Call of Duty Black Ops with a good frame rate, that might also include a Video Card and a CPU ready to do the job of an Online Computer gamer. I'm looking for something possibly within the 600-700 Dollar range, and don't care about the noise of the fan. It would be nice to only have to deal with a slow frame rate on very rare occasions. If what I'm asking for is impossible for my price, then please don't hesitate to tell me.

In that price range you'd probably have to build it yourself- Or have a computer shop do it, although their labor cost usually adds $100 to your final price. Also, don't forget that a copy of Windows 7 adds another $100, most DIY guides include the price of hardware only.
For pre-built systems, you basically have two options in your price range:
1) Buy a low-cost starting computer and upgrade the power supply/graphics card yourself.
2) Buy a CyberPower PC system. I think they're higher quality than Ibuypower, although the two companies seem to have merged or something.
If you're going the self-build route here are some nice guides:

If you're looking for something off-the-shelf to upgrade:

Then add these:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161338
And you'd have a nice gaming PC, under budget.
This is an even better starting PC:

But you wouldn't be able to upgrade it as much without overshooting $700. The best video card you could install with the stock power supply is a Radeon 5670:

But I'd recommend the same upgrades I posted earlier. If that's too high, go with these:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125342
Keep in mind that 75% of your gaming performance depends upon the graphics card, so having the first system (Athlon II) with a Radeon 5770 beats having the 2nd system (Core i3) with a Radeon 5670 or even 5750/GTS 450. In very CPU-intensive titles like Far Cry 2, the Core i3 would give you a boost, but not enough to offset having a weaker graphics card.
