Best Budget for a Gaming PC?

Parker

I'm hoping to build a new Gaming Computer by the end of the 2013 year. Currently, I'm either playing the Xbox 360, or playing on a crappy Intel Celeron B820. Obviously, that laptop isn't meant for gaming. I want something that can handle games like The Elder Scrolls on medium-high settings with a solid framerate.

I will be building my own PC to save the money (and put it towards better parts). So the first question is: is newegg.com really the place to go? It seems that in every forum I have gone to, newegg is mentioned at least 5 times.

The real question here is this: what parts are the best bang for the buck for different price ranges?
$500-699?
$700-899?
And, if it is truly worth it, what parts are the best for a $1000 budget?

So if you could, go ahead and name all the parts (cpu, gpu, motherboard, case, etc.) for those price ranges. Also, I would appreciate if you could say how much of an upgrade one this is to another (4GB of RAM compared to 8GB, etc)

Lastly, I've heard people saying that dual-core processors wont be able to run games in the future...so how long will the parts I get last in your opinions.

Thanks so much everyone. Yahoo Answers is truly the best!

This is the best motherboard for PC gaming, It supports 4 way SLI, which means more graphic Video ram

Over clocked, you can get up to 4GB Vram on that thing then with the motherboard times that by 4, you got yourself an amazing system

This will run games as smooth with a probability of 60+ frames a second on most games.

The Motherboard can support up to 64GB ram so you want to buy and ONLY buy 8GB ram sticks. The more ram the merrier, with 64, you can be playing, skyrim, streaming a video(I.E, Hulu or netflix) in HD, and then browse the web like reddit or stumbleupon,

However, to cut the cost, you want to start with something small, like 16GB, but the more ram you have the faster it is.

A juicy powersupply to support overclocking and all the functions
