Considering 40k is excluding monitor, graphics card, ups, speakers,
Here's what you can go from AMD stable:
CPU: AMD 1055T (10.2k) [955, 965 better for current gen games]
MoBo: MSI 890GXM-G65 (7.4k) [mATX] or GA 890GPA-UD3H (9k) [ATX]
RAM: Corsair 2x2GB DDR3 1600Mhz (5k)
ODD: LG/Sony anything (0.9k)
HDD: Seagate/WD blue 1TB (3k)
PSU: Corsair VX550 (4.7k) [TX650 (6.3k) if CFX / TX750 (7k) if CFX+ high OC]
Keyboard: Logitech Media (0.4k), Razer Arctosa (2.2k) / MS Sidewinder x4 (2.3k)
Mouse: MX518 (1.4k) or DeathAdder (2k)
Cabinet: Purely personal choice of budget and liking [NZXT Gamma, CM 430 elite, NZXT M59, CM 690, CM 690II Plus, CM 690II Advanced are great cabbys arranged according to price]
P.S. Sorry, you can't SLI in this (unless you use 'modified' drivers)

What GPU do you have? need to know to balance the config & suggest PSU
I currently using Geforce Mx4000.I Will buy ATI's 5870 when the prices fall or even the new HD 6770 if its performance and price are good.
Thanks alot.

Leave Out the graphics card for now or raise your budget s little and get every thing now itself
However I'd say if you have a good budget you'd do better to wait for 6 series cards
