Stay away from Kingston or PNY SSDs, though. Get a Samsung 840 Evo for $20 - much better and definitely worth the cost difference.
I'd stay away from that case though - the Cooler Master Elite series are the very bottom of the barrel and made from lots of cheap plastic. You want at least a Corsair 200R or Antec One - much better cases in the $40 - $50 range.

Gets you a 280X which is good for Ultra/Max in everything at 1080p, and an SSD
