$1000 Budget

I am looking to get into PC gaming and I would like to build my PC. I have a budget of $1000 budget. I want to stick on the green and blue team (Nvidia and Intel) and I was wondering what parts to buy since I am new to this. I will be doing some very light streaming/screen recording and I want to run games well. Maybe ghost recon or cod ww2. I'll only be outputing to one display.  I will not be needing wifi or Bluetooth on the motherboard. I will also need an OS. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Which country do you live in?

Don't buy by brand, just buy the best product for the price.

Are peripherals included in the price?

I live in the US and I already have a mouse, keyboard, and display.

Holy crap, RAM pricing is messed up. In August it was already a bit messed up, and you could get good kits for $120. 

You can pick a cheaper case, if you want.
