AMD A10-5800 Trinty 129.99
8GB 1866 DDR3 60ish
LG Blu Ray Burner 50ish
MicroATX case with a Fan and PSU already in. 40ish
A very cheap Gigabyte MB with USB 3.0 60ish
It was around $350 with shipping minus the OS disc I needed. If you want it cheaper just get a DVD drive or no drive

Nice, you got a great price for them specifications, I'll look into it thanks

[MADKATZ99]

Not sure of the specifics but it's an i7 with 16GB Ram and a mediocre graphics card... apart from the graphics card the thing is a pig.

 

[Tom Bombadildo]

Intel i3 2100 running at 3.10GHZ
8GB of RAM
Around 5TB of HDD space on 4 different HDD.
GeForce GTX 650
700W PSU
Cheapish MSI motherboard, but it gets the job done.

Not counting the GPU and the HDDs, this rig cost me $280 to build including a case. The GPU was $75 (received as a christmas present, replacing a GeForce 440GT that was originally in the build). This thing has played everything I've thrown at it with medium-high settings with the old 440 and max/high settings with the 650.

EDIT: I don't really had a dream build though TBH. Hell, replace my current build with a 1000W PSU, an i7, and a GTX 680 and I'd be set.

1000w would be over kill son D:

 

[dbspanks]

For about 250 I build a decent machine capable of running Planetside 2 at about 25-35 fps and hawken at 35-40 fps, I kept my hd's and dvd burner from my old pc.
I have AMD Phenom x2 quad core at 2.6 ghz
Asus M5A78l-mlx mobo
8 Gb Crucial Ballitix DDR3
Nvidia 9600gso 512 (got for 26 dollars used) great card for the price.
480w psu and 3 case fans
If I overclock my graphics card I can increase my fps in both games by about 20 fps.

 

[FireGrey]

Custom Built PC
i5 3570k 3.4GHz 4 Cores
Gigabyte z77 ud3h wifi
16gb DDR3 RAM
Gigabyte OC 7870
Green 650w antec power supply
Plays everything on max settings 1080p, 60fps, other than AA and AF which are almost useless on 1080p gaming.

I win the thread.

[Elrinth]

current:
gigabyte mobo
i5 @ 2.8 ghz
16 gb ram, slomo (cheapest)
nvidia geforce gtx 670 2 gb @ 980 mhz (mem 1500 mhz)
sb x-fi platinum

Dream:
Intel® Core i7-3970X Extreme
16-32 gb ram at highest frequency possible
16 fastest SSDs perhaps ocz in raid each 1 tb each. so like 4 raided for main disk (windows will be on this), 4 for music disk, 4 for game disk, 4 for music app disk.
That way I have 1+1+1+1 terrabyte ala 4 tb.
Latest creative sound card, plus a hi-end studio sound card, preferable internal, but okay with external aswell. VERY low latency, and hi quality is requirement.
Fattest nvidia or amd gfx card in crossfire/sli. - 2X 690 GTX or 2X HD 7950. Preferable the nvidia onces. Either way, I want custom coolers which are super silent.
A motherboard which handles super many ssd and the processor
A case which can room all the ssds and still not weight beyond oblivion.

 

[Hells Malice]

Intel Core I7-3770K CPU @ 3.50GHz
16GB RAM (8x2 DDR3-1600)
Some fancy Gigabyte motherboard
1TB HDD x2
500GB HDDx 1
60GB SATA x1
Blu-ray drive
Windows 7 Professional
ATI Radeon 5770HD videocard (yeeah need to upgrade

Oh, and it looks like this: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/43347842/2012-08-21 18.12.17.jpg

As for what i'd like to have...i'm content, I just want to grab 16GB more ram (because I can) and a way better graphics card...or two.

That's surprisingly doable. Sure, 1TB SSDs cost 2 grand each, and the extra Sata controllers also cost a lot, and most will not run full speed, but its doable.
