Just drop the keyboard/mouse and get the Gigabyte KM5300 set, invest in better peripherals later one, some decent ones.

E: Could also get cheaper wifi adapter, nn internal.

any color will work actually, I need something that will play starcraft 2 on ultra and that's really it, would prefer a 27" monitor! or maybe 2 24"

Starcraft 2 does much better on Intel Processor. Might want to consider some Intel builds. Probably even an overclocked pentium would do better than the FX :E.

heres something i put together, aiming for the original yellow/black

If you want to add anything else or taxes are killing it, can always downgrade the vid card just a little. I only went overkill on the GPU because it fit the budget, but you'd be totally fine with something a 280 @ 230 bucks or anything in between.
