Hello, I need suggestions for a good ATX Mid Tower case and a PSU.

 

The calculation in the CM PSU calculator is 319 watts. Should I go 450 or higher?

@gabbdogg I would get at least a 450w. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182261&cm_re=rosewill_capstone-_-17-182-264-_-Product

 

For $35 after rebate you won't find anything that comes even remotely close to something that good.

550w is not too overkill?

I also opted for the Rosewill Capstone 450-M for $34.99 after MIR. It's a better build power supply than the CS550M from Corsair and offer a 7 year warranty as opposed to 3 years on the CSM.
