Ask again after 5 months when Broadwell gets released.

Your present system is more than enough to run games in low to medium settings for another 2 years.

I know it just entered it to get some suggestions to get a good gaming rig.
get two 290 it should be able to handle, atleast run all the games..........(but quality u hav to reduce as the time progresses) and i really dnt think in future we would still have these type of games...........
 
Ultra High End Gaming all games releasing in the next 10 years should be run at its highest settings.

Simply not possible. Work on your mind and answer the first question again in a more sensible way.
