I am hoping to play games such as Titanfall, Skyrim, Minecraft, Mirrors edge, and more. Should this pc be able to handle that aswell as c++, java, and html coding? My build date is when I get an answer so thanks in advance!:D

How about
EVGA 100-W1-0500-KR 80+ for 30$ ( 40 - rebate 10$)?
the saved 20 bucks in the PSU can be invested in a better GPU

San disk SSD 128gb ssd for 65$ then later on you can add another drive as an upgrade

Here is how I see it :)  changed case as well
