Seconding this.
50-60% of the overall cost should go into your GPU and CPU alone, then a midrange PSU minimum, don't cheap out on the PSU because the nasty cheapo units will cost you dearly when they die and take out half of your system with them.
CPU and GPU make the biggest impact on the resulting pc's performance, memory makes very little difference beyond capacity, motherboard? just go with one that is compatible with the cpu and gpu, and has the features you NEED.
If theres enough cash left i'd recommend a decent modern SSD for OS/Applications and a 1tb+ mechanical hdd for file storage, aim for 120gb or higher for OS drive, beyond gpu and cpu an SSD makes a big difference to the overall experience.
Don't fall in to the trap of spending hundreds on a fancy case, its money that would be better spent on power, no use a computer looking good if whats inside it sucks.
