Look up online "How to build a gaming PC" there are literally 100's of instructional videos on how to get started, what to purchase, and what will be required. You need to decide a number of things, from your processor (AMD OR Intel) to your GPU (AMD OR NVIDIA) etc. You can build a great gaming PC for $1000.
