HideoKojima:
11/8 MY PC is built! But haven't put on OS yet.
11/10 PC is 100% down. OS and everything. Currently downloading windows updates. So I will still be using my laptop for the rest of the night for gaming and then never again :D
11/11 Now using my new PC here is the specs of my old laptop.
My new PC specs
Still need headset still and probably better monitor.
Can't talk to people on new computer. ;_; no mic.

Looks good, although since I was on an even more restricted budget than you I built an ATI computer that totaled 800 alongside the monitor and accessories such as keyboard and mouse and whatnot.
Anyways, experience and recommendation is that Nvidia and Intel provide better GPUs and CPUs but at a substantially higher cost. It's quality vs cost efficiency mostly.
Edit: That's right, I forgot. Ditch the heatsink that your CPU comes with and invest in an aftermarket heatsink. Cooler temps are worth the money, not only for performance but also for your immediate environment (Having a bad heatsink can result in heat radiating from your PC and making it pretty uncomfortable).

Heatsinks are pretty cheap aren't they?
I could honestly make my PC a lot more expensive, but I don't wanna go overkill and I don't feel like spending much.
Samo:
Change to a better motherboard, maybe less on the GPU and an extra fan or two for the case, those are around $10 each.
Zevante:
That green drive is pretty slow. You think you could recycle an HDD or just buy a new one when you need it? The motherboard is cheaply built. Otherwise good build.
