Alright so I'm going to build my first gaming pc. I got an AMD Radeon HD 6850 and 4 gigs of 1333MHZ RAM. I'm not quite sure what other parts I should get to match the parts I already have. I'm looking to spend around $400 on the remaining parts. Any suggestions on which parts I should get to get maximum performance for a decent price?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

With that GPU and RAM, you should be peachy with a quad core CPU. Do you know what motherboard you want already? Or CPU?
This is pretty open ended with just the GPU and RAM purchased so far.
Basically the whole system is left to be built!

Something like this basically.

That will make it work at least.
