Until you give an appropriate budget for us to aid you, then just a few quick tips.

-PSU in my opinion the most crucial piece, it's obviously important, but capable of **** up more **** than all your other parts combined.
: Expect to pay for quality.
: Worry about Amperage not Wattage.
: Get a Massive Single 12v Rail to avoid wasted trapped power.

-Case
: One thing, **** the appearance (No one gives a **** other than you) just get what has preferred size, budget, and internal design.

-HDD
: Want Speed? Get a small SSD as your boot device and pair up with a typical large HDD.
: Seagate offers better performance, but Western Digital offers larger options and better value for the money.
: Yet, just a large capacity HDD will serve fine as your boot device unless you're that much of a **** to complain about waiting 10 seconds for a boot.

-Graphics
: Not much to it other than comparing specs and checking review sites.
: ATI. Bang for buck, but generally gheyer drivers than Nvidia.
: Nvidia. Wins the War, but sucks up more juice and handles AL weaker than ATI.

-Mobo
: Simply what's capable with your other shiet. (Especially if it supports your CPU)
: Sideport memory feature = Makes your HDD boot like a SDD, and makes SDD = Lightspeed.
: Other than that, any more features to the mobo is just shiny.

-CPU
: Intel. Wins the War, no questions, their price doesn't **** lie. For Richiez only.
: AMD. Serves perfectly fine and shouldn't be underestimated. Just a friendlier price.
: Anything more than 4 cores is completely unnecessary, unless you're rendering videos or compiling graphic design (Which is generally a career thing).

-RAM
: Just if it's capable with your mobo, easy peasy.
: 4 Gigs is generally the minimum.
