So first of all, do I have all the parts I need? If I don't can you tell me what I'm missing and suggest which one to get? Second, if you know of a better part for a similar price could you tell me?

Sorry for so much info but I really don't want to mess up building my first computer

PS. I already have a mouse, monitor, and keyboard.

Well, you do need an operating system, Monitor, mouse, and Keyboard. But other than that, it looks like you are good.
My suggestions on the mouse and keyboard would be the Logitech G510 Keyboard and the R.A.T. 7 mouse. Both great gaming accessories.

Also, If I were you I would go with either the Intel i7 2600K(314.99 on Newegg) or wait for either the soon to be released 2700K(317.99) or 3820(294.99). Personally I like intel better, but then again changes in the processor would mean a large revamp of parts. But that is all up to you. :3

The thing I'm worried about most is the video card because I know the least about it. Can someone check it please? I want to be able to play games like killing floor, minecraft, and World at War.

That card would handle those. The best nVidia card as of now is the 590, so that is pretty far up there.

I just checked the price and its a little above what I was hoping for and I found these DIY combos which is basically what I was looking for. I know people say integrated graphic cards are bad but I'm not sure if this one is (That is the whole computer combo,it seems good for its price)

I would just build a Desktop with a legit graphics card. Unless you buy that and the graphics card. That could work too.

I don't know, I'm trying to find some way to lower the price and still have a decent computer. I figure my options are

1) Hope my parents will pay for some of it
2) Find a DIY kit with a good setup
3) Do a LOT of research on each part and find a suitable replacement
