If you only can pick two of them, then get the Asus M5A78L-M/USB3, because the quality, asus does the good job. And have a question, which CPU will you get? FX6300 or FX8 series?
Here is some info (power phase count, heatsinked, etc.) for the MB. https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AgN1D79Joo7tdE9xMUFlMEVWeFhuckJEVF9aMmtpUFE&gid=0

1) get the HD7770 for the games PC
2) HDD you need the 7200rpm one, not the 5400rpm.
3) Buy the RAM in kits like 2X4GB or 2X8GB because the manufacturer test them in the kits so that they will work with each other.
4) If you live near the microcenter, then you can go to the store for good deal, I mean pick up only. http://www.microcenter.com/site/products/amd_bundles.aspx
Here is the list:
Memory: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory ($68.00 @ Newegg)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($50.44 @ Amazon)
Video Card: Sapphire Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 1GB Video Card ($84.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $203.43
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)
