Hey all I'm looking for a good/decent gaming computer build with a budget of $800 that'll run most games fine without lag (of course not on max settings with the budget, that would be great though!) but anything should be fine as long as it can multi task and play most games with a decent framerate and on average settings then I'll be happy. I don't plan to overclock, just need a new computer to play games such as WoW and other LAN/new games with my mates. Thanks guys help is greatly appreciated.

I've also already got a tower which is the Phantom NZXT --> http://pcwizkidstechtalk.com/images/stories/pcwizkid/nzxt_phantom.jpg (picture of it) and already got a legit Windows disc so there's no need to add a OS to the list. Not sure if having that tower will make any difference but thanks guys.

This gamer will be able to tolerate Extreme settings in most games. I just built this for another guy looking to spend under $900 -- This CPU is a MONSTER! The OC'ing capabilities are excellent! I have mine running @ 4.8Ghz 24/7 on air.

I've already got the Phantom NZXT case and a OS. I can't order from newegg as it doesnt deliver internationally.
Also I don't plan to overclock as I'm not that experienced and don't think it'll be necessary
