So I've been doing copious amounts of research, reaching out on this site, etc. And I think I've finally come up with my final solution for a $1000 gaming build.
Please review, input is appreciated.
Intel Core i5-760

ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA 1156 Intel P55 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.492249
this pairing should provide good value, mobo w/ good features and SLI option
Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
+
XFX Black Edition P1-750B-CAG9 750W ATX12V v2.2 / ESP12V v2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS SILVER Certified Modular ...

Good funtional case and highly rated power supply (9.6 on jonnyguru)
MSI GTX 460 Cyclone 1 GB + just cause 2 included
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.455033
put a lot of time into choosing the card - cant beat the bang for buck... good performance, easily OC'able, and kicks @$$ in SLI (which i'll do later)
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL7D-4GBRM

should suffice, can add more later.
ASUS dvd burner

COOLER MASTER Hyper 212

Spinpoint F3 HD - this is actually sold out on newegg so I had to go to amazon.

All in all this comes out right at $1000, and that's before like $60 in mail in rebates.
How's it look????????????????????
