Okay so this is my first time building a computer and IÂ’m having a friend help me out. I plan to do a lot of gaming, listening to music, and music downloading. I know some stuff about computers but not a whole lot. Just wondering what you guys think? Your opinions? Any suggestions or recommendations?

Monitor - Don't know yet $100 or a little more

On a tight budget of $800. My friend recommended that I shop at newegg.com. I will use my old mouse, keyboard, and speakers.
