Finding a new tiny god

bluegargantuaHey,
So I'm thinking about getting a PC in the near future. I've been happy with my MacBook, but when I work from home, connecting to my work PC through this Windows Remote Desktop program for the Mac gives me a sad face. I could partition the dive and yadda-yadda-yadda, but what I'm going to do is just pick up a PC and go direct.
So I could pick up any crap-box and just go with that because the PC is little more than a dumb terminal to my work machine. But y'know...there's an awful lot of neat PC games.
So, if you've got some informed opinions, what would you buy? Say that I'd like to spend no more than $1k, but I'll go to 1.5. I'll probably play FPS games (like Battlefield or Left 4 Dead) and maybe a few action sims (like World of Tanks, or some space dogfight games). I'd like a box that comes with a minimum of added 3rd party crap I'll have to uninstall (do not suggest HP for example).
Regale me with your opinions, Internet!
later
