New Build Budget $1000. I'm a bit rusty.

[MatrixEVO]

I've been away from computer's new technology for a while, so I need some help. Give me your suggestions on a desktop computer with a budget of $1000, only including the computer parts, no peripherals. Main purpose: gaming.

I'm in the same boat as you man ha, check out my thread (http://www.computerforum.com/132949-new-build-need-some-help.html), I'm trying to make mine for gaming too but I've been a bit out of the technological loop too lately.
