Helping my friend to further improve his rig set up which he plans to buy in june.

Purpose: Gaming like BF4, GW2 and other latest games at high/highest settings. Also using programs like photoshop and visual studio etc.

Asus P8Z22-V Deluxe + i7-3770k ~798
WD-Black 2TB ~198
Corsair Neutron 120Gb ~179
Kingston HyperX 1600 (8x2)Gb ~196
Sapphire HD 7950 Vapor-X ~431
CoolerMaster HAF-922 ~187 (I think can reduce to a $70 casing, but which one to choose?)
Seasonic X Series 660W ~168
Asus DRW-24B3ST 24X DvDRW ~30
OS ~138

Total ~$2325

Can this be reduced further yet still perform as good or even better?

Thanks for the help in advance!
