I'm looking to build a $700-$800 pc that will be used strictly for gaming and browsing the Internet. I tried looking for parts to build my pc but I don't really know what I'm looking at!

I want to play games like battlefield 3, GTA IV and Garry's mod at high or ultra settings. I want to buy the parts from amazon or newegg.

Again I'm extremely confused and I don't want to get wrong parts and mess everything up for me. Thanks in advance for your help!
 


I have a monitor, mouse, keyboard, and a copy of windows 7. And I'm thinking of overcloking it
