New setup from scratch

You could get the wireless card I linked, that could save you using a USB socket? Personally I would change the case to one with USB 2.0 on the front, no point having the USB 3.0 when you can't plug them in anywhere.
 
Which case do you suggest? this one?

1 x Aerocool Qs-202 Midi Tower Case - Black £44.99

If so would all the parts listed above fit?
and how many USB in total would this give me?
 
It's tough because a case is down to personal taste but the Aerocool case would take all of the components and give you 2 useable USB sockets on the top and then the mobo has 2 x USB 3.0 and 2 x USB 2.0 on the back. So that's 6 in total. How many do you need?

Edit: Also comes with 2 fans

ok that sounds fine, I was just getting confused with how many USB ports i would actually end up with. As i wasnt sure how many the motorboard had.
If using the Aerocool case and MB give me 6 useable USB ports and everything else on the list will fit, then ill go for that as i do prefer it over the silverstone one.
