CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 AM3 - No need to spend the extra cash when the 955 will perform equally as well.
Motherboard: ASUS M4A89GTD PRO - Newer chipset, which gives Phenom II X6 support
Hard Drive: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB or Seagate 7200.12 1TB - Faster and generally cheaper hard drives.
PSU: What is the wattage? & if you plan to Crossfire, I would recommend the Corsair 750TX or Antec EarthWatts EA-750 PSU's, which will give you Crossfire support.
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Model F3-12800CL7D-4GBRM
Heatsink: COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus - You'll want one of these if you are wanting to overclock.

+1 to tecmo34's build except for the mobo, I will go with this Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5

 

[antisyzygy]

Overall a decent build but I second Tecmo34's advice.

That is a good motherboard... I was just trying to keep the motherboard around the same price range of the one the OP listed.

 

[saint19]

^Oh, in that case the mobo is a very good option.

I have one question when do you plan on doing this build, if its within the next couple weeks I'd stick with the haf 922/932 however if its going to be a bit longer I'd consider waiting for the Haf x series... which from what I've seen is gonna be around the same price.

Edit: The Haf X is expected to be released on May 25th
