Around $800 is a good price point, in my opinion.

A good CPU will last for a long time, it doesn't become nearly the bottleneck that a GPU might. Get a good amount of RAM with room to upgrade on your motherboard. Don't skimp on a PSU, as you might want to upgrade your GPU later. You can actually get a solid GPU for pretty cheap.
