So.. I've finally properly decided what to buy, and it's a pretty hefty PC, costing $1.3K.

Here's a list of the parts:
Case:Amazon.com: Azza Genesis 9000W Full Tower Case, White (CSAZ-9000W): Computers & Accessories ~$159.99~
PSU:Corsair CMPSU-750TXM 750W Power Supply [CMPSU-750TXM] - $165.00 - Scorpion Technology ~$165~
RAM:G.Skill Ares F3-1600C9D-8GAO 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 [GS-F3-1600C9D-8GAO] - $45.00 : PC Case Gear ~$45~
CPU Cooler (I will be overclocking):Amazon.com: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus - CPU Cooler with 4 Direct Contact Heat Pipes (RR-B10-212P-G1): Electronics ~$24.71~
SSD:OCZ Agility 4 128GB SSD [OCZ-AGT4-25SAT3-128G] - $95.00 : PC Case Gear ~$95~
HDD: Spare 1TB HDD we have lying around at home, I think it's a Seagate Barracuda.
Mobo:ASRock Z77 Extreme4 Motherboard [Z77-EXTREME4] - $139.00 - Scorpion Technology ~$139~
CPU:Intel Core i5 3570K [BX80637I53570K] - $235.00 - Scorpion Technology ~$235~
GPU:Amazon.com: EVGA GeForce GTX 680 SC Signature2/Dual Fan/2048MB GDDR5 Dual Dual-Link DVI/mHDMI/DP/SLI Graphics Card (02G-P4-2687-KR): Computers & Accessories ~$469.99~

I know, it's more expensive to buy from Scorptec, but there is a shop under 5km from where I live, which saves maybe $50+ from shipping.

Any reccommendations, feedback, etc.?

Also, will I need thermal paste?

Thanks! c=

Yes, I would suggest it.

So the GTX 680 was overkill, so I'm going $50 less and buying a Gigabyte GTX 670 Windforce Overclocked @1.08GHz hoping to overclock it further.

It costs around $250 to reship the case to Aus, so I'm buying an Aerocool X-Predator Orange. I'll be fitting 4x120mm Bitfenix Spectre Orange Fans, which will go with the look of the case so well. The case has a huge window panel on it's side with the option for 4x120/130mm fans, or 1x180/200mm fan, I'm buying some orange LEDs.

The interior of the case is orange, as well. The motherboard tray is orange, and it looks so sexy.

It costs $47.17 to ship the GPU, RAM, and mobo to Aus, but it saves more money than buying locally.

As for money, my parents are contributing $200-$400. I've already saved some $520 or so, but need another $300 at least. This will be interesting.

One of my friends would pay $150 for my PC as it is now, which isn't too bad. Then I could sell my PS2 + 29 games for $100+. If I needed more money, $200 for my xBox, or some hours of chores.

Hooray for my long posts and money management! :D
