-Much stronger gpu for just a bit more.
-Cheaper psu. The CX lines may not be as high quality as Seasonic, but they are still decent quality psus and it should be able to handle this build.
-Cheaper case, though it's still high quality. The 230T is on a great sale and it's a black case with red LED fans that matches your color theme. It comes with two intake fans and one exhaust which should be enough airflow for your components.

That leaves you with $70 saved which can be used to invest into a heatsink. You can go with the Hyper 212 EVO, which may not match your color scheme, but it offers great performance for its price. It's a very popular option because it's inexpensive but still performs very well: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr212e20pkr2
If you want something to match your color scheme, you can pay a bit more for this Phanteks cooler: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc12dxbk
It performs a bit better and it's black to match your color scheme. There's also a red version: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc12dxrd

Not bad if you can stretch your budget little bit more get an r9 270x or gtx 760 for the video card

do u know anything about this case will it work? just found it online and it looks awesome and it would only cost $55 after shipping

I don't know..I can't find any product specifications except that it's an ATX tower. I tried googling it and I still couldn't find much about that case.
I would rather stick with a more well-known case because there could be a lot of flaws with that Titans one.

Finalblast2010 :

I have bought two this case from http://en.agreetao.com/taobao/view/id/35153182187 , Very good quality, The shipping cost depends on goods weight and country. I am in USA, they deliver goods to me with good parcel.
You are must some mistake about shipping. usd5.8 is for 100g weight. The case is much much more than 100g, it's around 5-7kg. I forget to weight it. If you want me help, I can weight for you.
Amazing that there are millions kinds of Chassis http://en.agreetao.com/taobao/list1/cateid/110211
