Can someone build me a PC based around a black and green theme? I already have the OS, the graphics card and all the peripherals.

not quite in your budget, but it's a black and green machine. I included a green wire sleeving kit just in case you really want to go nuts.

There aren't all that many green components, it's a fairly under-utilised colour.

That being said, you have the Gigabyte G1 Sniper boards which should fit the bill.
Memory comes in any colour you want, plus of all the things it's probably one of the easiest things to paint.

There are green cases, but they aren't terribly common. There were Nvidia themed Coolermaster 690 and HAF X models which I'd imagine aren't too easy to get hold of. There is the Bitfenix Prodigy's green variant, but as you didn't mention form factor I'd assume you are looking towards a more conventional shape.
NZXT have a black with green Phantom, and some cases like the Bitfenix Colossus have green lighting on a black case.
Ultimately, you can probably just use green LED fans on any old black case and you'll get a similar effect.

If you want to try something else, let me know... but i'm not sure how much lower we can go. the problem is green stuff isn't cheap stuff. but i think this would be a rather respectable and powerful system. the only way to get into your pricerange would be to dump the i5 and sniper board and go with an all black Asrock Or Gigabyte MB and an AMD cpu; maybe swap over to a C70 military green case as well... not sure. it wouldn't be as cool looking as this build would be though.
