Help on my first build

[DAHN]

Hello everyone.
I'm looking to build my first computer and would appreciate any help. I'm going to do some light gaming (unless of course I get sucked in), programming and perhaps some web development. I would like to keep my budget at around 1000 dollars. Helpful critiques and objective criticisms are always appreciated.
Thanks.

Oh, and I also don't mind waiting about 2 months for better deals/parts (Black Friday?). This is just a tentative list of stuff.

You have the wrong voltage RAM up there. That Kingston RAM is 1.65v and these 1155 boards require low voltage RAM as in 1.5v or less.
