Ultimate gaming PC

[24giovanni]

I would like to get opinions from the gamers out here. I would like to to build an ultimate gaming machine from scratch. Could I get some opinions on what you guys/gals think would be the best processor, Motherboard, RAM, HD, Peripherals (Video Card, Sound Card, Ethernet Card, etc), Case, Fan, etc. I'd like to spend around $1000 tops. I appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.

I forgot to add that the $1000 is for the computer only.
