The Antec VP 450 looks like a very low end unit, but it's fantastic, it delivers full wattage all day long without hesitation -Johnny GURU

 

The R9 285 murders the 750Ti.

I was looking in to buying parts for a PC to hold me over (playing Minecraft, light video editing) since I have to give my iMac back to the company I am currently renting it from. Here is my PC Parts Picker Link.    http://pcpartpicker.com/p/RgvfkL

 

The case is missing because it wasnt on PCPartsPicker. But I want the Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-03 

 

I am not open too change, I just want other peoples opinion if this PC would be good enough for the things I mentioned above. I am at the maximum of my budget. If you want to suggest some different parts, I want NO less than 4 cores.
