Need help building a PC

[supercrossed]

So i saw a picture in a magazine, and it was a pc, but it was in a plexiglass container, like a desk, and it could be used as a desk

something like this

Now i want to build on e like this...

My price range is $1,000-$1,200

I want a i7 3.4ghz quad core cpu (the one that costs about $330)
I also want a decent graphics card, that can be used to play mw3, and minecraft


I'd prefer liquid cooling, but a fan is fine...so i need to know how to do this...what parts i need, how to build it, etc..

You said you wanted liquid cooling. The case is what I have and made perfectly for the cooler. Also comes in black. These guys will have you save on the cooler and use stock hsf to see how temps go. Will also recommend WD Black versus the SSD. Good video card going to set you back from my guess $200+. The board has onboard video and since I'm not a gamer not sure how would handle your games. All the above I built for my son to game with, and an identical build for me to play with plus a GeForce gtx 560 video card ($250). Both are simply a kick-butt machine. You do the math. Good luck

That is a really cool looking desk. I like the idea. I would make the surface tempered glass rather than plastic. It won't be long before the plastic is all scratched up.
