500 squirrels?
Jokes aside you have to be more specific about what your budget is (euros,dollars, i hope not squirrels?)
And from what retailer or shop you want to buy the parts from.

for games....
Since you are not saying what currency you are using I will assume it is 500 usd, so take a look at these two pc's:
1. Is a newegg pc combo
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.1569762
2. Is something I put together. You could go for a lower power supply and save 10$ (Corsair CX500 - http://pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-power-supply-cx500) and add that money for a better gpu like a GTX 660 (http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-gtx660dc2o2gd5)

but here is the full system: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/313QR

it means you can only buy 5 per account per transaction so that shops cant take advantage of the pricing unfairly.
