I did put windows in,maybe you don't need it,but i assumed you did.

For building a pc,
http://uk.hardware.info/reviews/2591/build-your-own-pc-2011-edition
just take a look,it's not that hard.
 


+1, what a great build for the price! If you don't need Windows you save even more to put into the GPU or CPU.
