and this is what I am looking forward to:

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($29.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: ASRock H77M Micro ATX LGA1155 Motherboard ($69.98 @ Outlet PC)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($48.99 @ Newegg)

My idea is to try to save (if possible) on the Case, PSU and Hard Drive from the old one that I have.
If I can save on those parts I will put them towards a really good Graphics card and thats why there is no graphics card on the description of the new PC. (Any advise on the Graphics Card will also be appreciated)
