Yeah, don't take any advice from Skylar. He probably doesn't know a thing about computers anyway.
This link might give you some good comparison information. http://computers.toptenreviews.com/gaming/

You might want to go to www.tomshardware.com and do a little reading up on computer components. Rolling your own can be quite an educational experience. NEWEGG.com is a great source for components and I would think you could put together a nice setup on your budget.

CPU i7-950 on a ASUS Rampage III Extreme Socket-1366, MB. Corsair Dominator DHX DDR3 1600MHz 6GB or 12GB and a MSI Cyclone OC GTX-460 1GB GFX Card.
If you want to overclock cpu,you need a Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler.
HDD, Velociraptor for system, and a fast WD or Samsung Spinpoint for storage. Alternatively Intel X-25 SSD for System and or FS and a Seagate for storage.
