I need my parts from NCIX and Canada Computers cause I do not want to ship any items. CD-Drive not needed.

Things I looked at and/or want:
2x4GB Ram
(http://ncix.ca/products/?sku=87562&vpn=PV38G160C0K&manufacture=Patriot&promoid=1300)
or
2x2GB Ram
http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=52788

500GB Hard Drive
(http://ncix.ca/products/?sku=58402&vpn=WD5000AAKX&manufacture=Western%20Digital%20WD&promoid=1300)

AMD FX-6300 CPU
(http://ncix.ca/products/?sku=76934&vpn=FD6300WMHKBOX&manufacture=AMD&promoid=1062)

Sapphire Radeon HD 7790 (Problem because it is Web-Only, but still a good deal.)
(http://ncix.ca/products/?sku=81782&vpn=11210-01-20G%20%28OC%29&manufacture=SAPPHIRE&promoid=1300)

I need suggestions for a MOBO, PSU, GPU, and Case (Again, from NCIX or CC). Also, are there any better solutions for the price for the parts I have chosen already? I will be most likely upgrading to an extra hard drive and more ram.

$232.96 (4GB Ram before GPU). I also don't want to rely on mail-in rebates.

Thanks for helping!

P.S. If this is too confusing, just make a $500 PC from NCIX or CC without using my recommendations. Thanks!

Case with PSU, http://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=6_112&item_id=043323 $40 Ya I know it's not the best PSU but I've built about 10 systems using them and never a problem. For a cheap build, you have to make compromises.

Thanks for the response, but it's over my budget by about $125 which is a lot since i'm on a tight budget. Also, some parts I cannot find on NCIX or Canada Computers which makes a conflict since I want to pick my parts up instead of ship them.

That $400 with tax but no video card. You go get a 7750 for about $100 or spend $140+tax and get that one from NCIX. About the best I can do.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I might get this and upgrade the PSU in the future. I saw a Corsair CX430 for about $25 and CX500 for about $40.
 
The 7750 is a decent card, and goes for about $100 at CC. I have one now in my system, ok, for light gaming, details turned down but you can upgrade later if you want. That would put the card at $113 with tax, plus the above, $513 with taxes, all from CC, no DVD drive, no OS, but a good build.

Note, that case doesn't have USB 3.0 but the MB does if you need it that bad. It's a budget thing trying to stay within your budget.

My current card is an integrated Radeon 3000 graphics card and an Athlon X2 220, I know you're laughing :)
I was told the HD 7750 is about 11x faster than my current graphics, and I can bypass some light games on my current pc. So, I think for what I am trying to do (Play GTA 4, GMod, LA Noire, etc.), the HD 7750 will do quite well since that's what my computer is struggling to do.
