what's it for?

asus p8z68-v pro + core i5 2500k (was sold out for $300...likely run you $360-400)
any reliable 600W p/s antec..corsair..seasonic ($60+)
any 2X4GB ram kit..1333MHz is probably enough ($40)
most dvd writers out there are decent ($10-20)

that gives you $200ish for SSD and win 7

win 7 i'm they have those student/employer discounts from time to time
I'm a noob at SSD so someone else can chime in
1000 is definitely do-able if you look for sales/pricematch
z68-v pro + 2500k maybe overkill if the only taxing thing you are doing is light gaming...but it has amazing overclocking potential should you choose that in the future
