Looking to build a Gaming PC

I've never built my own computer but I'd like to look into it, because it can be cheaper than buying a computer of relatively the same performance. I know my needs are probably not very specific but I would like some advice on this as I'm not quite sure on a lot of things. I'm probably going to sound like an idiot but I don't know much about computers

Budget: Between $800-$1000

Brands: No specific brands

Multitasking: Some multitasking but nothing major

Gaming: This computer will be built mainly for running WoW as well as I can. It's not a hugely intensive game, but I would like to be able to run it without any lag issues and still be able to surf the web, listen to music and whatever else I may need to do. In the future I may look into other more intensive games but for now it's WoW.

Calculations: None

Overclocking: Possible, just to try it.

Storage: I won't need all that much storage. No pictures or videos. Just some music and game info.

Legacy Support: None. Everything will be new.

Operating System: Vista is fine. Unless something else would work better.

Case: For this I'd like something that has a cool, sleek look to it. Size just depends on what will be put in it.

Accessories: Not necessarily

Recycled Components: None

Monitor: None

Stores: None

Location: U.S.

I've got a few things put together but I'm not sure if they're what I should be using:

If I can cut costs somewhere to make upgrades elsewhere, or just to cut costs, or make upgrades.

Thanks
