I just put one together myself, as all I had was a laptop that can't really do much.
I didn't go overboard, ended up ~$710. I don't really plan to overclock or anything so I figured I didn't really need a 3570k or an expensive Z77 mobo.
i5-3470
ASRock H77M
8gb Corsair Vengeance
HIS Radeon HD 7870 2gb
Wasn't really sure on the power supply, because I really wasn't sure how much I'd need, but I went with an Antec BP550 mostly because it's modular and PSU calculators were telling me I'd be using somewhere between 300-325..so I added 200 to it.

Welcome to the club. I have a new build that is coming up in the next week or so. Watercooled CPU.
Sweet what blocks and rads are you putting in?
I'm fond of EK. Everything in my loop is EK but the RAD and pump of coarse.
