NZXT S340 Elite for those cable management clips in the back, better PSU filter, 3 2.5" bays, and sexier side panel.

Sad you didn't throw in an SSD :( If you want to play at 1080p then an RX470 should work fine and that should allow you to add a 120GB SSD to your system.

|PSU Tier List /80 Plus Efficiency| PSU stuff if you need it. 

My system: PCPartPicker || For Corsair support tag @Corsair Josephor @Corsair Nick || My 5MT Legacy GT Wagon ||

Or just buy a reddit windows key and get a 240gb ssd...

 

On topic though, I would recommend the Define S in that market range 24/7 without reservation.  It's the coolest and quietest running midtower on the market today, and it's an amazing case to build in.

 

Plus dyipc  is a poopy brand.
