Case, power supply, motherboad, processor, video card (these are both often on the motherboard), RAM, hard drive, CD or DVD, keyboard, mouse -- All required.
You might want a floppy, but I wouldn't bother any more. If you are planning on gamming, you will want a pretty good video card--better than the on-board. You want at least 512 RAM, but I like a GB. You may also want an audio card (there is usually a basic one on the motherboard) and speakers.

Video card one of the best
GeForce 7950 GX2 features a knockout pair of GeForce processors on one irresistibly powerful board. This dual-GPU board features an astounding 1 GB of fast GDDR3 memory and support for resolutions up to 2560 X 1600. It’s a beautiful thing.
then you need a Motherboard that it fits
NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GX2 - Motherboard Compatibility

Then you need as much Ram as you can get and a huge hard drive,
Might I suggest a couple of 300gb or a 500 gb

Get a wide screen like this one

Now you need some sound

and speakers
System Speakers 5.1 surround > GigaWorks ProGamer G500

then all you need is a keyboard / mouse and .............
