    The parts are largely ok but the HD4850 is a better graphics card than the 8800GT and isn't much more expensive. Also, the power supply included with that case is a deathtrap. You can use the case if you must (though it isn't that good) but you will HAVE to replace the PSU with a proper one or expect issues. A 450W Corsair VX will do fine.

    i would recommend the cool master 690, or the antec 900, or nzxt tempest. something around there, if the price fits you. there are a lot of cases out there that will work for you. if you only need adequate cooling, the nzxt apollo looks very nice in my opinion. you can go on newegg and look at the ratings and reviews to put u in the right direction.
