For reference berrod, I went on newegg just now and just randomly added things to a shopping cart.
i5-4570 + a mobo that I just threw in cause it had the same socket + supported the ram I know (Corsair Vengeance LP) (2x4 8 GB) + BD Drive + SSD (250 GB) + HDD (1TB) + GTX 760 + Windows 7 Pro + a case I like + 750W PSU + CPU cooler = $822
That's just me fuckin around so I'm sure actual people who know what they're doing for the best bang for your buck will tell you much better.
edit: And it's sounding so nice when I look at this cart xD;
I only pay attention to what the latest bits and pieces are and what they do when I'm actually putting together a machine. Once that's done, it's like a memory dump. All I can remember at the moment is "more memory = good" and something about most games not needing more than 16 GB of RAM?
