I put this together at Microcenter:

035436 SAMSUNG E 120GB SSD 840 2.5 SATA 3S - 79.99
583369 INTEL BOX INTEL CORE I7-4770K - 279.99
614818 ASROCK Z87 EXTREME6 ATX 1150 - 129.99
251900 IPSG LG 24X DVDRW SATA OEM - 15.99
211334 CRUCIAL 8GB 4X2 D3 1600 DIMM CL9 - 52.99
190306 CORSAIR 750W CXMOD 80+BRZ ATX PSU - 74.99
497818 THERMALTAKE V3 BLACK GAMING CHASSIS - 34.99
Subtotal » $668.93 Tax » $53.51 Total >> $722.44

Plus there are two rebates:
Rebates: Corsair PS : $10.00
Case: $15.00


Then I added a GTX 660 from Newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121660:
1 x ($209.99) ASUS GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card $209.99
1 x ($49.99) NVIDIA Coupon Metro: Last Light $49.99
1 x ($-21.00) DISCOUNT FOR PROMOTION CODE$-21.00
1 x ($-49.99) DISCOUNT FOR AUTOADD #85654$-49.99
Subtotal: $188.99
Tax: $14.17
Shipping and Handling: $0.00
Total Amount: $203.16

There's a $20 rebate on the video card.

I used an existing mouse and keyboard and added a 500GB drive I had laying around. (And using a old copy of Windows 7 I have.)

So at the end I'll have spent $925.60 out of pocket and I'll be getting back $45 in rebates (assuming I fill everything out perfectly and they don't lose it, or mess with me in some way.)

Or go with a Dell. The Dell's not a bad deal actually considering the case looks nice, and you get a year of support.
