I've picked out which components I want for my mid range mini gaming pc:
Mobo

i5 3570K
HD7850 2GB
8GB DDR3
Case:
http://www.microcenter.com/product/399001/Elite_120_Advanced_Mini_ITX_Case_%28RC-120A-KKN1%29
----
My questions before I go out and begin are these:
1)I'm undecided on a PSU, any suggestions?
2)Will these parts fit well inside of the master cooler case? would it still be practical to use an even smaller case?
3)I currently have an ASUS g60vx laptop and wish to use the laptop HD in it as my main until I can save up for a SSD. Is it compatible with this setup, and can I easily install it and windows 7 on it without a cd?
4)My main purpose for this build is to run world of warcraft on the highest settings possible in 1920x1080p with at least 60 FPS, will this setup do the trick?
5)How would new release games, like Crysis 3, fare on this system?
6)I feel like the CPU might be overkill since I do not plan on overclocking, any cheaper cpu's out there that will still help me achieve my goal
7)I am undecided on a 1GB or 2GB gpu
8)I need the pc to have wifi built into it, and I see that the mobo has some kind of wifi feature on it but i am unsure of the quality or if it is actually real wifi. On the same note, can I leave any wifi antennae inside the case instead and still have good connection? (im about 25 feet from the router)
9) I am basically just trying to trim costs at this point where I see fit, such as if I really need 8gb of ram?
