What the hell do you mean obviously? It wasn't that obvious was it if I had to ask? How the hell did you expect me to know what currency you're using?
And how was I know you were going to use it for gaming? So many people use a computer for just normal tasks... You might have wanted to render on it, and in that case, it would have completely changed what I suggested for a build.

I'm assuming USD.
Here's my build:
Case: Fractal core 1000 (if you're the type of person who prefers looks as well as performance, for like $10 more you can get the zalman z9 case, both cases are great though)
Optical DrivE: Lite on DVD Burner
hard Drive: Western Digital Blue 500GB 7200 RPM HDD
Graphics Card: Sapphrie Radeon hd 7770
PSU: Antec vp-450 (Yes, 450w is plenty for this build)
RAM: Crucial ballistix 8GB DDR3 RAM (I chose the one stick of ram because it's like two dollars cheaper, i'd get the 2 x 4GB sticks though)
Motherboard: ASRock B75M-GL LGA 1155 Intel B75 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU: Intel pentium g860 (3.0 GHz) in the future I would upgrade to something like the intel core i3-3220.
Anyway, that's my build not sure if you need mice or anything, the total comes to about $460, you may need to stretch your budget a bit or downgrade the graphics card to a radeon 7750.
*Forgot to mention there are mail in rebates and what not where you can knock $15 here and there. really helps with lower budgets.

I just posted a very nice ~$450 build here: Forums/p=28899115.html#28899115
It's got an i3-3220 instead of a G860, which is a very significant upgrade.
