    The Cooler Master HAF XB is a great case if you want something with decent cooling but with a design that still makes it easy to swap out parts. The PSU should probably be around the 800W-1000W mark (maybe overkill, but good to have if you plan to add/upgrade). An SSD paired with Windows 8 will rip through start-up and shutdown times, but if you still like Windows 7 just check everything is good to go with your UEFI and other disks from an old, non UEFI system (seems obscure, I know, but if you get a UEFI mobo and try to use an MBR based disk the UEFi will go apeshit and activate legacy modes and the like). From what I've heard and used, Sandisk has cheap SSD's with solid controllers at a reasonable price. Good luck with your build!
