Ditch the case + psu. I wouldn't ever buy a case that comes with a power supply.

Also, micro-atx motherboards are very crappy. Yours can only hold 2 ram sticks. And it won't have much up-gradability.

This PC has a much better video card, and a better processor. (the video card you suggested won't play ANY games)

Or if you do need a small case then I would go with this,

Ya the HD5450 is a nice HTPC card and even then you be fine on the current 785/790GX IGP but for gaming get a discrete with a lot more teeth hehe Luckily i actually specialise in SFFs/HTPCs, LANparty cubes and here are just the tip of the iceberg of my projects (those that i managed to document hehe)

A modular PSU helps in neatercable management hence promoting better airflow in the small space of a shoebox/SFF So for your budget @ $584 AR perhaps
