Brand new will be quite hard for that budget. Best to assemble the whole PC 2nd hand. What kind of games you intend to run on the machine? The last APU system i built was 6 months back for about 600 only reusing DVD drive and no GPU.

From KeYoke:

WTS the above Desktop Rig

Motherboard:
Processor: AMD x4 945
Motherboard: MSI 870A G54
Casing: Lancool K62
PSU: Seasonic M12ii 620W
Graphic card: MSI HD5870 Lightning
RAM: DDR3 8GB RAM
Cooler: Coolermaster hyper212 + 2 fans

Casing comes with 4 x 140mm Lianli Blue LED fans

Can consider this set. But gaming reso have to be below 1080p.
