I would recommend this:

Motherboard: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Processor: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Case: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Power Supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Case Fans: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

RAM: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Hard Drive: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Video Card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/ite...

Should be around $500 - $550

This is a build that focuses on maximum gaming performance on a strict budget with enough power to handle most games at 1080p on medium or higher settings.

Controversy is welcomed :)
