So I am planning to build my very first gaming PC but with a limited budget of $1000 (Including taxes and shipping)

I'm not a hardcore gamer but I do like it a lot if I can play smoothly with the highest settings possible. I usually just play a lot of online games like League of Legends, DoTA, Ragnarok and BF series.

I'm also not picky when it comes to OS and what my PC looks like, as long as its working and I'm benifiting? then thats fine! :D 

I prefer if I can order parts in amazon or newegg since I live in the middle east. (shipping's a problem sometimes)

So yeah can u guys help me pick out good parts for this?

P.S - As for the power supply, I prefer the 50/60 Hz ones so I can take it anywhere (I travel around quite a bit)

I saw this special offer where they include 2x4gb hyperX black fury instead of the ripjaws for ram for $441. Is that a greater deal? Although I believe its a bit more expensive than this build is.

Also, is it possible to go wireless wifi with this build?

No you will need an WIFI adapter . Use Ethernet: its faster , safer and more reliable

Thanks a lot for this..Im gonna start looking for those parts if its available on a few PC shops here (hope it is).

Also, I'd like to keep my options open so..can you suggest a good Wifi adapter then? I do use an ethernet cable but only if Im the only one at home (cable pretty much travel through our home's hallway so anyone can trip on it if not careful xD)
