Building a new computer, need your opinions

[JustCallMeSean]

Hi, this is going to be my first build and I'm wondering if I can cut down the price by $100-$200 without sacrificing too much performance. I will also be buying my parts from the Microcenter located in Cambridge. This rig is mainly for gaming, I plan on overclocking the graphics card and the processor.

http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0354282 - Sapphire Radeon HD6950-2GB $300: This can be unlocked to HD6970-2GB (Direct competitor to GTX-570)
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0315397 - CM-Hyper212+ $28: This is better than the H50.

That's $102 down

I will use this mainly for gaming, and a little video editing here and there

You could probably also save some money on the case if you didn't a need a full tower.
The cm haf 922m and the antec df35 are both around $100.

Replaced GTX 570 with http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0356873 (don't need to flash to 6970, i'll just OC and be happy)
Deathadder is now Logitech Mx518
Haf x is replaced by Haf 932
and the total is 1392.88
Thank you everyone
