Case is on pre-order but its the follow up from this sites favourites :D
Modular PSU on offer - I have it and its lovely
Z77 mobo so you can upgrade to Ivy in the future

Or if you want swap the 560 TI for a 7850 and drop back the mobo the a H61 that has modern support like SATA 3 and USb 3.
 
The only times I have ever heard it struggling with gaming is on BF3 on Ultra settings with 64 man teams.
 
If I was able to get a free copy of win 7 from my college ( might be abke to) would you reccomend swapping out the i3 for the i5 2550k
