I'm new to building computers, and I'm trying to switch from Xbox to Steam.
I want to buy the parts as soon as I have all of them ready. I don't have much space for a huge tower, so a medium tower is what I want.

BUDGET
I have $700 USD saved.

Monitor and Peripherals
I need everything! But my computer's usage will be 80% gaming, 20% typing.
Monitor resolution doesn't need to exceed 1080p and needs to be modest size.
Mouse- I need a regular mouse, nothing fancy at all!!
Keyboard- can be fancy, but this depends on the leftover of the $700.
Mousepad- not necessary.

Games
I will be playing games 80% of the time, this is very important! I'll be playing games like LoL and Defiance. So hi-res games.

Software
I'll be using Chrome (unless there's another browser that y'all recommend), Steam, and LoL.

Aesthetics
Favorite colors: Lime green and blue. Don't mix em, but whichever y'all like better.

I'll be doing all rebates and promos. I'll be ordering at the end of April.

Thank y'all very much.

You forgot about the operating system, it's $800 with Windows 7 64-bit (OEM).

I don't include operating systems in my builds unless requested.
