Your budget was $1000, right?
Well, you can get all of this from BestBuy.com for $982. You would be paying a premium for it all vs what you can get the same stuff for at Newegg but you don't really have a choice if you are limited to just using your Best Buy card. This will run circles around what you posted above. You could even save $100 by getting the 2GB 650Ti Boost and it would still be 100 times better than what you posted.
Others here can maybe add or take away from it for you but I am already late as it is so I threw this together for you really quick.
Mobo - Asus - Desktop Motherboard - AMD 970 Chipset - Socket AM3+ $88.24
Memory - Corsair - Vengeance 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 SDRAM Memory Module $74.99
Case - Cooler Master - Elite 430 Mid-Tower Chassis $49.99
PSU - Corsair - CX Series Modular CX600M 600W ATX Power Supply - Black $76.99
HDD - WD - Mainstream 1TB Internal Serial ATA Hard Drive $79.99
SSD - SanDisk - 128 GB 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive $107.45
CPU - AMD - 3.80 GHz Processor - Socket AM3+ $125.99
DVD - Lite-On - Super AllWrite 48x Write/32x Rewrite/48x Read CD - 24x Write DVD Internal DVD-Writer Drive $21.88
GPU - EVGA - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Graphics Card $299.99
$982 shipped and then torrent a copy of Windows 7, get you a decent Keyboard and Mouse and have fun gaming on a PC you won't need to upgrade for a few years unlike that one you linked.

So ordering all that I will have everything I need to put the PC together? Let me ask what happens when I turn it on if I don't have an operating system on it? Never built a PC before?
