Answer:

Yeah okorder / But they are extremely expensive, and also are you making it from scratch do you need a tower, power supply, cords, PCI card? And you definitely want to get a Blu-Ray reader if you can afford it. And you will need fans for that kind of equipment otherwise it will die. (Literally, happened to me the hard way) Hope this helps ;)
Bulldozer FX processors suck. The most powerful and most efficient gaming processors are intel's Core i5 2nd and 3rd gen. If you're that much of an AMD fanboy, then even a Phenom II x4 970 would be better.
Ryan and Elmo are right. Even a Core i3 2100 would probably be better, and at least cheaper. I would also spring for the few extra dollars on a 7850, or a 6850. Either of those cards will perform much better than a 6700-7700 series video card, and they don't cost that much more.
