Check out http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/ [...] dget-build
Do you have an OS you can use, or will you need to buy one? Adding that would be about $99 for vista home premium x64 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6832116488
Headset is a matter of personal taste, what size/type is comfortable to you, etc...
Webcam : this one looks ok for entry level http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6826606006
Xbox live points: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6874103053
