I wouldn't go with an APU if it isn't a budget build.

Take out the from your post.

And like element said, $800 means APU's are out of the table. You'd only get them for sub $300 builds. Go for either an i5-3570k (staple) or AMD-FX 8350 if you're playing CPU intensive games, or get their ~$150 counter parts (dunno which i5, but FX-8150 is ~$150) if you're going to play GPU intensive games and get a 7850 or gtx 650 ti boost. You're also getting a 5400 RPM hard drive which is really really bad (only do that for a storage drive). I'd also considering getting a used/cheap monitor since it doesn't look like you're going for anything fancy.

*The build above me is fine too, I didn't see it until after I posted*

Here is something I came up with: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1rHSo

You can swap the SSD with a monitor if a SSD isn't something you want, though it is nice for fast boot up times for your OS and other applications.

Are you going to need to get a 120hz monitor?
If so you could probably go with like a ~$100-$150 gpu and put the rest towards the monitor. (Maybe a 7850 or so)

I would prefer a 120hz monitor, yeah. I'd assume a decent one's at around 22 inches is, like, $150 or something.

Asus VG248QE is 24" and around $280. That's around the cheapest you'll get for a 120hz monitor...
EDIT: It's around the cheapest you'll get without a ton of input lag or awful colours.

Just look at benchmarks yourself and see what components are most efficient for your price range. Also you don't really need an ssd if you're running windows 8. My laptop has it and boots up almost instantly compared to my desktop which takes forever.
