its up to you every one has there own favorite for the parts, one of the most important things would be to make sure all of the components function together. if its your first i would suggest a bare bones so you don't have to do as much as a full build.

Just make sure that your Mobo and Processor are the same socket. Most sites will say which processors each mobo supports. I'd say pick your Mobo then go form there. As far as which brand, I've exclusively used ASUS and I've noticed a decrease in quality, from their drivers anyway (graphical compatibilty issues, easy fix, took forever to figure out).
