Can someone help me with building my first gaming pc?

[Jokuhr]

First off, I don't need help with "actually" building. I need help with a build. I have no idea what to put together. I want this pc to be built around gaming, recording, and I want it to have Windows 8(Not included in PC Build). I play a lot of Minecaft, DayZ, and Source games. I plan on using dual 1080x720 monitors (also not included in the build.). My Price range is $800-$1200. Please post your suggestions below and help me out. Thanks!
