Building A New Computer

Hey guys I'm planning on building a gaming computer and I haven't played games in the longest time. So my current desktop is WAY outdated
I'm looking forward to Starcraft 2 and Diablo 3, and so I want to build a system that will run those games pretty well and smooth and nice.
My budget is below 1000, including shipping :0
I've tried to build one but I always go overpriced and I am really rusty with building.
Also I would like Windows 7 premium and for the video card I'd prefer an Nvidia.
Processor an intel. Thanks guys for helping me out! I'd like to learn a few new things while I wait for responses! Remember $1000, and it has to run starcraft 2 and diablo 3 on high and smoothly!

i think daisy meant have them in sli, which i would agree with. the two cards equal about a 260's price, and i am assuming the performance beats the 260.

He want Nvidia...
At $150 - 200 price point, there is no single Nvidia card. SLi GTS 250 ($180) will be the best option for that price point
GTX 260 would be an althernative option, but with $200, GTS 250 in SLi would probably beat that
