$907 for the guts of the system
Achieva Shimian 2560x1440 IPS monitor for $305 shipped
<$250 for a video card (GTX570,7850,660 when it comes out)
$1462 total
throw in another $20 for a Hyper 212+ CPU cooler, and your still under the $1500 mark.You get an unlocked Ivy Bridge 22nm processor, a decent midend motherboard, 16 gigs of 1600mhz ram, a 256gb SSD for OS+primary programs, and a 500gb storage hard drive, as well as a fancy monitor and a Lian-Li case (the cadillac of computer cases
)edit: and of course I forget about the OS, throw in another $90. I'm sure you can skim off some stuff off that list

edit2: just realized that this was in the AMD subforum.. lol.. anyway, with a budget of $1500, your out of AMD CPU's league.
