On that budget, you want to make the most of promos and discounts (and rebates if that's not a problem). Assuming $600 is the PC itself, i.e. no peripherals or software included.

CPU i3-2100 $110 AP
Mobo Intel BOXDH67CLB3 $80 AP
RAM 8GB G.skill 1333 $38
GPU Sapphire 6870 $150 AR or MSI 560 Ti $190 AR
HDD Samsung F3 500GB $80 AP or Hitachi 7K1000.D 750GB $100 or Seagate 1TB 7200 $100 AP
DVD Sony burner $18
PSU Corsair CX500 V2 $31 AR AP
Case Antec 300 $40 AR AP or CM 690 II $55 AR AP

= $547 to $622 AR AP
