The case I choose is a good one but pretty random, choose whatever case you like as long as it big enough to fit everything inside it.

As for the GPU... you could go with a 980, even 2 980 at your budget, I dont think 980 is that much better than a 970 to worth a 220$ more per card though, so I get 2 970. But it's up to you.
