Get a Western Digital Black 1TB drive. Hitachi drives have a tendency to fail. Do not get the Logisys case/psu combo. The psu's that come with the cases are garbage. You should get something like the corsair cx430 for the 750TI video card. This is a decent case, I use it for all my client builds.

Other than that the build looks okay.

As John indicates, don't try to use that PSU.
For the drive it should be OK. Hitachi/HGST is owned by WD these days, although I wouldn't hesitate to suggest other Hitachi drives. I had 7 of those 1 TB disks in my server for about 2.5-3 years without any errors or events.
You might also want to entertain building around a 1150 platform as you'd have more expandability in the future.
