Building Gaming Rig for COD: Ghosts etc, please comment and advice!

[combowaffle]

Hi all!

I'm attempting to build a gaming rig to play COD Ghosts and other games.
I would be grateful for some advice on my setup's configuration, compatibility, value for money and performance.

Some advice on the PSU's power if it is sufficient, and a recommended ATX casing would be great too.

Here's my setup:

Price: Approximately $1436 without ATX casing (Bizgram, Fuwell price list)
CPU: Intel Core i5-3570 3.4 GHz (Price with Motherboard)
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z77-UD3H ($483,CPU Bundle)
Memory: 8GB PC3 12800/1600 Kingston CL11 ($96)
Storage: Samsung EVO 250GB SSD ($289)
Video Card: Gigabyte GTX760 2GB ($409)
ATX Case: Not sure, any to recommend? ($?)
Power Supply: Corsair GS800w Bronze Gaming series 800w ($159)
Optical Drive: Not required
CPU Cooler: Is one required?

Note: OS Windows 8.1, Wireless Adapter, Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse already obtained

Thanks, appreciate your time!

Hi i guess you would'nt be overclocking since you are not planning to get a cpu cooler hence i think you should instead choose a B85 mobo with an 4th gen processor such as i4670 without the K. It will be cheaper too and your psu is abit overkill for your gpu lol 800W is enough to run 2 760s hahaha should get a 600W HX superflower. for the GPU you can consider changing to r9 280x just top up around 20 to 30 bucks you can get a performance for a 770.
