talking tower and all accesories?
If you need everything from the ground up, your not gonna get a whole lot but its very possible to build a decent system for that much
pick up a generic tower and power supply - 100 bucks
make sure it has a atx12v plug on it.
Pick up a decent socket am3(amd) or intel board that can handle quad cores <100

something like a core 2 e8500 or q6600. Or for amd something like this (i have one) $100-200

any pci-e video card will do fine...you get what you pay for. $<50-350
I have a radeon 4870, its extreme overkill for what im doing right now
Most have support for 2 monitors, just make sure first.
generic sound card, SATA hard drive, wireless network card if need be, etc ~100 depending on capacity.
