Seek help building a $1200 gaming pc

[edd1e101]

I am looking to build my first pc, i have some ideas about what i would like to buy but i thought i would consult the pro's. Could someone please help me by designing a pc, or aiding me to decide on some parts for my PC. Also my max budget is $1200.

Give us more information. What will you use it for? When will you build it? In which country are you located?

Also, do you need a OS? monitor? Will you be overclocking?

Sorry i am new to this forum

Not overclocking
I do need windows 7 but not a monitor

Take a look at this, actually came in a bit under budget:

That is with an overclockable CPU and good cooler. You said you weren't overclocking, so you could save a bit of money on those two items, but I didn't see a place to move the money to that would really get you much more performance, so I left it as is.
