The power supply isn't going to cut it, get one with better quality. Something such as the XFX TS 550W, Corsair CX550M or the Seasonic S12II 520 will work.

 

You'll need a CPU cooler. As for cases, I suggest the Phanteks Enthoo Pro.

[Guayser913]

Meh... I prefer tall cases  but thanks  also forgot to mention im using a CRYORIG H7 49.0 CFM CPU Cooler

Cool man im jelly

Change out the PSU if you haven't bought anything.

For case, take a look at Corsair Carbide 400C or go all out for Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX TG, you will want to show off all the hardwares.

Looking for a case under $100 ish ($110 or $120 is okay :P)

Phanteks Enthoo Pro 

Or Enthoo Pro M (if the pro is too big) 

[Guayser913]

I was lookign for a case more like the Corsair Spec 01 (Would that case work?)

Yes 

[PCGuy_5960]

I think you should buy a better quality PSU, like the Seasonic-M12II 520W or the S12II variant...

All cases have a place for the IO shield!

[Guayser913]

Oh

[Guayser913]

It is 80 plus, so it should be decent...

Nonetheless, I would recommend a Seasonic PSU, as they are the best in the business... 

[Matias_Chambers]

Get a different PSU. Get an EVGA G2 550W or anything from Seasonic, SuperFlower and XFX (excluding the XFX XT series)

[Matias_Chambers]

I would also recommend adding at least a 1 TB HDD. Case suggestions: Fractal Design Define S, NZXT S340/H440, Phanteks Enthoo Pro/Evolv. 

[Guayser913]

I might go for a thermaltake Versa N25 https://www.mwave.com.au/product/thermaltake-black-versa-n25-windowed-mid-tower-chassis-with-600w-psu-ab83935

The 80+ rating doesn't determine quality.......and Delta > Seasonic

I was just saying that if you make an 80+ PSU you have to use higher quality components than a generic one...

Still not true. Raidmax have some Gold rated units which are pretty poor.

Don't tell me that they are better than "Deer" PSUs! 

(This is my point, they are one step above the generic PSUs that are more likely to blow up in your face than to deliver 80% of the wattage they claim to be able to deliver)
