Building Gaming PC under $800

[VolcomSlayer92]

Hey guys,

I'm looking to a good gaming computer, but my budget is a total of about $850 give or take.

This budget includes everything involving a computer.

I want to play games like BF3, Day Z, and modded Minecraft. Do you guys have any suggestions?

P.S. This is my first time dealing with a PC Desktop. I have a horrible laptop so you could call me a noob at this stuff.

It's a pretty tight budget since it includes things like the OS, monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc... Here's what i came up with, but it uses mail-in rebates to get under budget.

Well i just figured out that I can use my TV as a monitor and I can get a speakers, mouse, and a keyboard for $50.
so if you can upgrade anything to a total of $800 without monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers that would be sweet!
