Hey, i'm not into computers or anything just gamming, i was thinking of making a computer with the help of my friend, because this gay dell sucks. So can you guys tell me what parts i should get for a gamming computer that's under the price of $1200. The only thing i have for it is Moniter, keyboard, and a mouse.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

AMD 64 3000+
an asus mobo that supports AMD 64 (a8v rev 2) worth the money
1gig of 3200 ram
Geforce 6800 ultra or GT 256mb Gddr3 memory and 256bit interface
500 watt psu antec or thermaltake and sparkle are all good
Audigy 2 zs if you dont want onboard sound
CDRW drive
120 gig hdd western digitals are very good

Amd>Intel And im pretty sure the intel pentium thing that you are talking about is the AMD cpu. The Amd 3000+ is like an intel pentium 4, they are both cpus. And since its a high end gaming machine i would definetly go AMD though if you work at it you can get a good intel gaming machine to. They just tend to heat up a lot more 
RFCL, you left just one thing off, thats speakers. Logitech makes good midrange priced and high end speakers. I also would go 6800 GT and buy a 3200+ if the budget will allow it. The Ultras are just too hard to find for a decent price for me to recommend one. I would suggest newegg for your parts, just find an ad on here somewhere, newegg ads are floating around all the time.
