I could find all this on my own, but with so much stuff to look through im sure some of the experts on here will be able to give me better options then I would come up with myself.
I also know yall are all about finding the free shipping!

So, it seems my corsair 430 80+ bronze PSU has gone bad, as well as the USB 3.0's on my cougar mid tower case.

budget doesn't really mean much, what does is VALUE.

I need a new midtower case, I would like it to have good circulation and come with blue LED fans, 2+ USB 3.0's, and have a decent look to it.
I would like an upgrade on the PSU.
I would also like a decent sized internal hard drive (HDD) for some storage and a good recommendation on a headset.
I could do with an upgrade on my graphics card as well... I currently have a 5 year old Saphire, I mostly run Diablo 3, DotA, Autodesk Inventor HSM and FeatureCAM (CAD/CAM)

Thanks in advance for any help yall hook me up with!

this, ideally how much are you looking to spend on all the parts listed (total, don't need a breakdown ;) )

As stated above there is no budget, it is all about value. If I wanted I could spend 5k... but I don't want to buy more than I need, overkill is def not necessary. HOWEVER. I was looking at cases between $50-$125ish and a $70ish psu.

I'm all about not buying cheap shit, I want something I won't have to replace in the next 5 years...

Mobo is an Asus m5a97

here's what i'd recommend
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3WCMHN

u dont need to get blue led fans either if u just want the fans for blue led,
u can pick your led color from strix and case RGB options.

also these fans, idk what you value more. $8 cheapshit that's good enough, or $30 goodshit so u pick
