Didn't mention anything about an OS so I included one in for you. Putting the price a bit over if you buy everything from NEWEGG.

If you don't plan on OC maybe switch the CPU for a i5 4670 and use the intel CPU cooler and switch to a H87 motherboard to save some money.

I picked the Corsair AX760 because its on sale atm, and is almost the same price as other PSU's but is platinum rated. The case is up to you, but I think the Corsair 500R is a decent case for the price.
