This is where I learned to build my computer. Make a thread stating what your budget is, what you intend to do with a computer, and what part of the world you live in. Somebody will come up with budget level, mid-level and enthusiast level PCs depending on how much you want to spend. For the love of all that is holy, don't buy a prebuilt computer! It's easy to do yourself and it saves a ton of money. If you want to game, CPUs by Intel are the way to go. Look up benchmarks of the parts you want, figure out how to get bang for your buck.

Intel is good but if he's aiming to keep it gaming optimize he should consider AMD for price/performance. Also for the case, i've heard it a million times and I would have to say to get a Haf 932/X for your case as it is good for air cooling(and water cooling too) and the price is spot on.
