First PC Build

[HackedLux]

Hi, I'm trying to pick out parts for my first PC build, since my old laptop isn't cutting it anymore.

 

I have some parts picked out here: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/HackedLux/saved/M9r323

 

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353045

 

My budget is $600 USD not including monitors and peripherals, but I'm willing to go over it a little bit.

 

I plan to be using this PC for gaming. I mostly play low resource indie games, but I would like to get into open world games like skyrim or fallout.

 

I would also like a budget gaming monitor recommendation under $200, I'm currently looking at this one: http://www.benqdirect.com/monitors/gaming/benq-rl2455hm-gaming-monitor.html

 

I already have the peripherals I need, so I don''t need recommendations for those.

 

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I looked at it, $15 more than the Antec... not much of an improvement.  I personally would spent the extra $15 just to relieve the PSU from overworking a bit over the years.
