If you want to run it for longer periods of time I would go with a different power supply.

You can use any case that can fit all your components. So far that's pretty much any mid tower.
Evga supernova semi modular is quite okay if you want to keep the costs down. Go for something above 550watt.

If you want something really good the seasonic has some great PSU, but they don't really fit your budget and are more targeted towards high end PC's.

Also the cooler master GM 550watt might be an option for your build.

Edit: and for a ssd the Samsung 850 evo is the one to go.

Ok i changed some stuff around, more room to play with now.

What i am worried about is.

ASRock Z97 EXTREME4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard has an onboard USB 3.0 header, but the Cooler Master HAF 912 ATX Mid Tower Case does not have front panel USB 3.0 ports.

The G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-2133 Memory operating voltage of 1.6V exceeds the Intel Haswell Refresh CPU recommended maximum of 1.5V+5% (1.575V). This memory module may run at a reduced clock rate to meet the 1.5V voltage recommendation, or may require running at a voltage greater than the Intel recommended maximum.

as i said before all ram over 1600 on ddr3 is consider an oc and will all give that fake error.
as for the case and usb 3.0 headers well you have 3.0 usb's in back but unless you need a usb3.0 in front its pointless.

there was nothing wrong with that psu.

Changed that out in your build. Go with 1600 ram it works for your set up and it's only slightly higher in price. Matches the blue color you had previously.

Ask the guys here first maybe as they'll know more.

Also I have no idea what EVGA PSU's are like as i've never owned one but i would consider the same one im using on any build <550 Watts

Antec High Current Gamer 620W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
$85.68 $85.68 SuperBiiz

It's not full modular but it is neat and set up well. I have it bottom mounted in my HAF 912 which is an excellent case for air flow it's huge inside and my Desktop has ran 24/7 7days a week for over 4 years now. Never had an issue with the PSU.

(I was also running 4-6 sandboxed D2's on this unit back in the day on this set up and i never had issues.)

Edit:
Yeh the HAF 912 has two regular usb ports in front, 4more in the back along with 2 usb 3.0 in the back.
