What is a good gaming computer build between 500-750$?

Q. I'm looking to build a gaming computer and i can spend between 500-750 dollars not including monitor, mouse, keyboard, and speakers. I dont really have a clue how to start building or what parts i need. I know websites like newegg.com sell individual parts. I dont plan on trying to play crysis or any games with that high PC specs. Some games I play are, Voyage Century, Killing Floor, and I plan on getting Star Craft 2 when it comes out. Could you give me some parts I need that will run those games? (I know i need a mother board, graphics card, sound card, and all of that but i need some specific ones like GeForce 9300 or something that will run those games) Thanks Alot
I'm not looking for a super good one that has a $200 video card and top of the line parts. Just a build that can play the listed games.

A. With some creative shopping, you can actually build a seriously powerful gaming system that could handle Crysis for $800. The key is chasing down combo prices

gaming computer 500-750 dollars?

Q. what is a prebuilt comp that can run BF3 on 1080p hopefully about 60fps? i have looked around newegg im not sure exactly as which to get.

A. why buying a prebuilt when you can build it yourself, just read few tutorials about assembling the computer parts;
if you're interested to learn, here's the link:

my recommendation: NEVER buy prebuilt system, ALWAYS build it by yourself.
