Gaming pc help please!

Hi, i am looking to buy/build a new custom gaming pc!
And I have been researching for a long time and now Think I have the parts in mind that i think would make good first gaming desktop.
I do know that building a gamin pc by my self would be quite scary as it is a lot of money for a person of my age and for me to save up for a year and then mess up all of my parts and have to save up for much longer than neccessary really would not be convenient.

Here are the pc specs/parts whatever(Monitor isn't in there because i couldn't find one i wanted:

Yes that is copy and pasted off the website I used but hey ho!
Games I would like to play:
Skyrim High-Ultra settings
Minecraft Max settings and recording with any software(just want to record!)
Maybe FarCry 3 high-max settings

It is quite a lot to ask but it would be really cool if I could run them, I don't know what screen resolution because i haven't decided on a monitor But i'm quite happy playing 720p on games!

i'm also a bit iffy on the PSU.

Sorry for the extremely long question/thread sorta thing and it would make my day if someone answered my question!

You don't need a sound card

You don't need a CUP cooler for a CPU you can't overclock.

The gtx 650 will get you low settings at 1080p You want to look at cards like gtx660/ Hd7850 and higher for med/high settings. for max settings look at gtx670/7950. I would recommend the HD7870. It will max most current games and play anything on high.

Never get a coolermaster PSU. they are crap. Get a 550ish watt one from Antec, XFX, Corsair, Seasonic.

You don't need a z77 motherboard if you aren't overclocking. Get an h77 board and save some money to put towards the GPU.

if i was building a gaming rig i would place most of the build money on the power supply...cpu..gpu..
i would use a good standard atx case that had good cable management like the r400. then use a tube clf or led if you wanted it to glow red or blue. looking at 20-40 or case lighting kit. the issue i dont like from those way open cases is there not made to be moved as there display case. also pc going to suck up a lot of dust/dirt and things can fall into the open case. if i wanted a display case i would put a side window in. i would use the r400 case and a sealed cooler to keep the noise down and have good cooling on the cpu. liquid cooling ok if you know how to flush and keep it from turning green.

Haha liquid cooling would be really awesome but i am basically a Gaming PC noob despite all the reasearch i done so i wouldn't have clue how to install it and "keep it from turning green" but i haven't really researched the max temperatures and good cooling to use with such and such parts
