800-1000$ Gaming PC

[BluCounter]

HI EVERYBODY!
HELLO DR. NICK!


Approximate Purchase Date: Q1-Q2 2012

Budget Range: 800-1000$ after rebates, might stretch budget to 1100$

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, p*rn, surfing the internet, watching films.

Parts Not Required: Actually, I need it all! INCLUDING MOUSEPAD!

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Ah you know, AMAZON.COM! (shipping to Norway)

Country of Origin: I live in Norway!

Parts Preferences: AMD CPU for its cheapness, Corsair for its awesome memory stuff, Cooler Master for their/they're cool looking LED fans AND Logitech for perfection!

Overclocking: Yes absolutely!

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe!

Monitor Resolution: Anything below 1600x1200 is fine, I want it to run smoothly!

Additional Comments: Decent looking case, one of the HAF cases perhaps? I want it to, well, run not exactly quietly, just not really ear-damaging-150dB!

Here's what I was thinking:
