I'm planning on building a gaming PC.
My budget is $800, who wants to help me?
What I posted on my thread ; It's around $800
I'm wanting this thing to be able to run any games at medium-high settings.
I don't have any parts at the moment.
Yes, I only need the PC.

For your budget, I'd go with the 560ti for your graphics card. I have a i5 2500k cpu and a p8z68 motherboard and I have no complaints with either of them. As Orc will no doubt bring up, intel has a new series of cpus coming out soon that look pretty great, but demand will no doubt inflate the price in the beginning. Case is entirely based in personal preference, and if you're lucky enough to have a spare one lying around with decent airflow you can save some money. It might be worthwhile to get 2 harddrives: a 50 gb solid state drive for your OS and a normal terabyte one for everything else.

Ivybridge wasn't worth the weight. But fuck it they're almost out now anyway.
Alright thanks guys.
