Could save money on the psu by getting 500w.
Might want a H77 mobo that is normal size
Get 8gb ram definately worth 20$ more
Might want i5 3570k or i3 3220/3225 instead.
Might want 2gb 7850

All in all like 75$ difference and huge performance increase (i5). Could go with i3 to save 90$

Do you need the OS still?

Disk Drive - are you pulling that from an old computer?

RSJJ had a pretty good idea with his set up. As stated, you may also want to invest the little extra money for the "K" version.

And I think you MAY want to bump up the HDD for the extra $20 as well. 64MB Cache (as opposed to 16) + 1TB (as opposed to 500GB). I mean, it's not my money to spend but I might invest the extra $20 fort hat as well...

You may want to buy an aftermarket CPU cooler and an SSD for faster boot times.

Here's the CPU cooler I use:

Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO

GL beating this for the price, you can up the 7870 LE to a 7950 with the extra 20-50 bucks, the 7870 XT it's basically a 7930, it's tahiti, it has 1.5k stream processors, it's cool, and best of all, cheap.
