Default Building COmputer and need some advice

My current computer is getting quickly outdated and I have wanted to upgrade for a while. I have laid out the computer I am going to purchase perhaps but wanted some input. I am looking for a rig that will play most current games. I also do web design and some limited graphics type work. I wanted to stay within a $700usd limit. I am going to be more than likely dual booting linux and windows and I already have another sata hard drive and I will be using my old optical drives. I also wanted this computer to last a while.
