But being the dick I am, I'd honestly advise you to spend that money on a PSU instead, the VS series is very, very low tier.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

That PSU is horrible, please replace it.

Get an EVGA G2, GQ or GS, Seasonic G or X or XFX XTR instead.

 

For the case, I am looking at getting the Phanteks Eclipse P400s, but it isn't out quite yet.

Just unreliable in general. It may be working now, but I still wouldn't risk it.

It is a very low quality PSU and definitely not fit to run power a gaming PC, look at this list, it is at the bottom for a reason.

Snag a regular 4790 instead if you don't plan to overclock.

A cardboard box. It's cheap and very customizable. If you ever you want a bigger case you could just duct tape another one to it. Double win

MasterCase Pro 5, EVGA 220-GS-0850-V1 80 PLUS GOLD 850 so are theses 2 items a good investment?? 

The case is fine but the PSU is insanely overkill.

 

A EVGA 550 G2 will give you some headroom for a GPU upgrade. The GTX 950 uses very little power.
