Which gaming computer website are you buying this from?

[HPAVC]

I would play around with http://pcpartpicker.com/ and see how that fairs a bit (it also makes since BBCODE links if nothing else for posting in forums)

Overkill for what you intend to do and dust is a serious problem with the HAF since it got no filters on the case fans.

OH GOD DO NOT USE CYBERPOWERPC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a really atrocious experience with them two and a half years ago where they didn't QC anything and the thing bluescreened when it got to me and they refused to just send me a new one, they wanted me to return it for a 6 week "repair" (when it was broken out of the box). They were really awful on the phone trying to deal with it and basically ignored me until I made a very angry post about them on gaming reddit.

More to follow

edit:

Ok so the entire reason that I wanted to order a premade computer is that my last me-built machine had a very long slow death with lots of troubleshooting over months and months, a headache I did not want to have to go through so I ordered one made by cyberpowerpc.

The thing arrived and it would not turn on and they would neither replace nor just let me return it. They wanted me to have them repair it, a process which other comments told me takes 4-6 weeks.

Because I was pressed for time, although I looked into contesting the charge with my credit card company (which I would have won), they said I'd need to ship it back at my own cost and I'd be out that money regardless and that it would probably take several months to get the cash back.

I ended up doing exactly what I didn't want to do, troubleshooting the bluescreens until they went from every few hours to every couple of weeks (turned out to be some memory channel issues with the motherboard) and I lived with it that way until my SO replaced my computer for me last november (with specs he designed at Origin PC).

The origin PC has been awesome.

With cyberpower you get what you pay for or less. I'd recommend doing just about anything other than buying from them. Don't trust the number of stars given in their "reviews" on their own website, if you read long enough you'll find review sthat say things like "And so I'm giving them two stars because of X" and then see that their review is 4 stars.
