Now don't freak just yet, as I went over a bit, but this is what I'd recommend. However, I will give you options to make this cheaper.

EVGA 01G-P4-2751-KR GeForce GTX 750 1GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 Video Card
 
I chose this over the 750 ti because of the price point. It is still much, much better than APUs, which are commonly reccomended at this price point. 

If you want to spend a bit more here, the 750 ti is an option.

Has 2 6 pin PCIe, even thought he recommended GPU doesn't need it. So cheap, name brand, good reviews, and upgrade ready.

 I know it's only 4GB, but with a dedicated GPU, it's fine. The motherboard has 2 slots. If you want to have a single 8gb stick, it will be around 75$ vs this 37.99. Your choice. Or you could go with 4gb and add another stick later if you wish.

I went really heavy on the CPU. If you wan to save a few bucks, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113287 is a good option too at 109.99, or a cheaper fx cpu, but that would require a different motheboard.

29.99
Total: With 8 core, 466.99, or 417.99 if you go with the quad core cpu. 

With quad core cpu and 8GB stick of memory, 454.99$

 

I can also make a cheap intel build if you wish, or an APU build.  But the 750 will kick ass for mild gaming. 

Cheers!

ok thank you so much guys ill be considering the amd rigg, cus i think an intel one would be more expencive so ill try to get the quad core 8gb of ram? i think

So you are doing/considering the one with the 750? Also I gave you the cheapest case possible, but it isn't the best. That shouldn't really matter, but if you want a slightly higher one that's quite nice. Here's one for 44$

I wouldn't put that cpu with that board. It won't be able to cope with the 8320 TDP.

That would be about 495$ with the second 44$ case I posted, and a 145$ 750ti. With the 750ti you get 2GB of vram, worth the extra money for current games.  :D

That's for the PNY 2gb 750ti

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133531

The one with the most and best reviews is the EVGA one, and is 9$ more. 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487024

both will run without pcie power connectors oddly enough. 

 

Good luck. If you decide to build this need any help with the build, PM the thread link I'll do my best to help. 

Oh, and another case alternative, a really well known one, is 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147153

This one has no window though. 

Another option to make it quieter is to use this in place of the stock cooler.
