First of all I'd get at least a 1TB hhd as 500gb will be filled really fast (get barracuda, caviars just arent worth it)

As for your case, I'd get the Bitfenx Shinobi which just overall looks much more clean and sleek than the bulky CM (the shinobi also has red mesh/logo customization so it'll work with theme)

Lastly, you definitely do not need a 750W psu, for your current specs a 600W is already more than enough (still applies even if you plan on future crossfire)

I'd put the money you'd save on the psu and case towards a cpu cooler which would greatly improve day to day performance as overclocking on a stock cooler is just a nightmare

The Scout 2 is a decent case however it only comes with the one fan. Other than that, Tony is pretty spot on.

Ok I can go down to a 600w but I don't like the shinobi i find it has like no cable management and what is another case

NZXT Phantom 410 or any of the numerous Corsair cases are also options, though none of them have red on them (except the fully red phantom)
