$1000 gaming PC build help

[Kano523]

Trying to construct PC for no more than $1000, but at least $950, with modern gaming in mind. A blu-ray drive is also a requirement. Currently this is the build I've come up with, but could use some advise on comparable parts to get the price down. Any help would be appreciated.

this doesn't include a case or os because some people can reuse them from prior computers, if you don't have either it will probly run you from 1050 to 1150, but its the best I can think of. Hope you like it . http://pcpartpicker.com/p/nqsV23
-note that the tri 290 is a bit longer than the other models and if you are looking to get a case for this you will need to adress that ( I assume that all full towers will be fine and some mid towers).
