Here is my build so far and I still need video card, power supply, cheaper sound card:
Motherboard
ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 AM3 AMD 880G HDMI SATA 6Gb/s
CPU
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz 6 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 125W Six-Core
RAM
CORSAIR XMS 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
Hard drive
Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
Case
Antec 900

I don't care about sound really, so an expensive sound card isn't necessary. The build is for graphic intensive gaming, but I'm only a casual gamer so no need for crazy high end hardware.

Thanks for the help!

Well this is what I got. So if you have a suggestion on the rest it will be appreciated, otherwise don't tell me other stuff to get

Its these types of posts that make forums annoying. And by the way AMD doesn't suck for gaming. Thats an opinion, not a fact.

AMD doesn't suck..Both Intel and AMD have their good and bad products..But with this budget, maybe the best option is to go with an Intel Based System
