Want to try and make it in the 700-800 range, I already have a video card (560 ti), power supply and hard drive. If yall could lead me in the right direction that would be awesome. It's been a long time since my last build, Core2Duo days.

No, Newegg isn't cheaper. Not even close. Anyone that lives within reasonable driving distance from Microcenter should buy the bulk of their components there.

Only the intel/amd + mobo combos are worth buying there.
Everything else is more expensive than online retailers, plus you have to pay taxes on top of it

Hard drives and RAM are also cheaper there in my experiences.

Case: Fractal Define R4 $109
Mobo: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 $135
CPU: i5 3570K $219
RAM: Kingston HyperX 8GB 1600 $69
Total: $532 ($460 after rebates below)
Notes:
You can get the Case for $79 if you buy by 5/2 using promo EMCXSVP52
If you buy the Board and CPU together as a combo you will save $60

Yeah but you have to pay tax on it, which eats up any savings.
