Advise to building a gaming computer?

XYZ

I want to build a gaming computer but don't know much about the parts themselves. I want to build one that will run just about any PC game smoothly and the graphics to be pristine.

I would be willing to spend $500 - $600 in total for the computer alone.

Could someone please give me a clear list of what I need exactly? Graphics card is my main focus but yeah, just a list of what I need for a computer that I described.

I'm looking to play Diablo 3, Starcraft 2 and all those type of games.

Answer
This build should cover your budget and the games you want to play.

What are the components I need to build a gaming computer?

I have about 2000 dollars saved up for a new gaming rig, the only problem is that I have no clue what parts are the best for that kind of budget. THANKS!

Answer
With $2000 you have MORE than enough.

Either Go with a Tier 7 Mainstream build:

Or the Tier 8 Green build:

You've got plenty of leeway to tinker. For example the GTX 680 really isn't worth the minimal boost over the GTX 670. Why buy a $250 motherboard when a $150 model works just as well? There's no reason to exceed 8GB of RAM for a gaming rig. And you can easily save money by choosing a smaller SSD or less fancy case. Personally I'd just go with a Cooler Master HAF 912 or Corsair 300R and put more money into the GPU solution.

A lot of people may suggest higher bang/buck configurations... anyway, if you're not too familiar with hardware just target one of the higher-end mainstream builds and upgrade a few things.
