We will need more information than that. How tight is your budget? Give a number, it makes it a lot easier when looking for components.
Also, what games do you mostly play? Is the budget just for a case and internal components, or for a screen, keyboard, mouse, etc as well?

Rebeltech usually has very competitive prices. Sometimes the Evetech bundles are also good deals.

What PSU do you have at the moment? If you have a decent one you don't need a new one, and that money can then go towards other components.

I agree with matt though, you should get a hold of Joker. Bust post as much information from your side as possible, it really does help in picking components. For instance, do you plan on overclocking your CPU, or you'd rather not mess with that? Do you need a hard drive with the new pc, or will you stick with what you have?

What sound card and mouse do you have? Before I ask anything futher...
 
I will post the sound card later, the mouse is the Roccat Savu.

All right. So at least you're sorted on having a good gaming mouse. Now just for the rest, eh? :)

Of course, 'The Joker' will help you out. The 'Resident Tech Guru' :)
