Hey everyone, first of all thanks for reading this. So basically i have a small issue. I want no build a new PC but just cant find what i am looking for. I would like to thank anyone for helping that helps me. If i get a few people to give ideas i might have a small prize for the one i pick. So my budget is $300 US and just bought a CPU today for $45. Below are the parts i already have including the CPU i bought so you get $255 to work with. I am looking to play games like GTA V and some last gen games like far cry 3 and stuff like that since it is a small budget. Thanks!!!

Parts i have:
250gb SSD
1TB HDD WD Blue
Intel Core i3 4130
8gb ddr3 ram

Parts i want:
DIYPC DIY-N8-BK MicroATX Mini Tower Case
Zotac GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB Video Card (Unless you can find a better one for a good price)
I would like a full modular powersupply!
I need also would like a motherboard with usb 3.0 but if not it does not matter much.
I also need a CPU Heatsync

NOTE - This case has a glass panel and i am looking for a setup that looks nice.

Here is the case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811353067
And here is everything else: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/VRpVrH
Coming altogether to 258

Although I followed what you asked for, there are a few things I would change if it was my build.
I would get rid of the PSU, as it is a bit OP for this build, as most Fully modular ones are, I would get a Semi modular one instead, it will make almost no difference as the semi modular has only the cables absolutely needed plugged in.

I would spend the saved money from the PSU on a GTX 950 instead of the 750 ti.

So I tried to work with a very tight budget . I believe this is the best it's going to get . I'm going to tell you why I got these parts and why I chose them
. I changed the case to something more reliable and durable for the price. Corsair makes very good cases.
I picked sour the cheapest mobo I could find but tried to stick with gigabyte as they offer good features for the price and the quality is amazing .
The power supply is very important so I got a reliable EVGA 500B 500W which is plenty enough for the gpu I chose .
For the graphics card I chose the R7 370 over the 750 ti because it performs better . I tried to give it 4GB of vram so you can bump up some textures and resolution.
