Default ill admit...i need a lot of help on building a computer...

so, ive tried to tell people that i know what im doing, and just ask for parts at a time, but im just going to admit that i really do need help just making a computer, and say "screw my pride" . plus, i dont want to mess up the comp ...SO! can all of you mart people please please please help me?

im making a comp to play games on. thats the main thing. im lookin to have it as an upgradeable comp in the future, so have like SLI and all of that. i DO want a 7800 gt, thats all i know, basically...but yeah, and do basic stuff like word and the internet.

and my budget is 1200 for the comp. ( it would be 1350, but i have to have a little money for the mouse, keyboard, moniter, you know)
but i need basically everything that would be in the case (including the power supply and and fans and all of that. plus, can someone pick me out a case? i dont need a window on the side. not trying to be showey)

plus, i dont need a soundcard if the motherboard has a decent in-board thing (gosh im an idiot...you know what im talking about...right?) for the sound. and im getting a headset, so i dont need speakers either. and, i dont know about bios at all. so as easy as you can make this, but the best you can.

everyone...THANK you.
