A 40 dollar case bundled with a psu couldnt be anywhere near quality, and i've had more psu's die out on me then any other computer part (excluding peripherals). There is only one true fact that i've learned when dealing with psu's, and that's that "antec" can be a lifesaver.
As well with the computer case, you said it also comes with 4 fans (or does it just have the slots for fans?), which would leave me to believe that either these fans are going to break in a month or two, or possibly not work at all. Try and look into some panaflo fan's, and if you have any animals get some filters (fan's are like $6, filters are like 3 for $2).
What are you going to do about your Heatsink Fan? You say your going to oc the barton to 3200 speeds, but so far i've seen stock (cheap) case fan's, and i'm assuming stock heatsink fan. If anything, the thing you'll regret the most is not spending the extra $ for a good hsf. I'd reccomend the volc 7+ if your not worried about dB's.
I'd also like to ask you a few other questions, but before doing so i'd like to know what you'll be using this system for?
Hope I helped =)

This is going to be a gaming system and then media center/gaming when I get to college.
Heatsinks and fans are going to be important but I'm worried about the size of the fans/sink, PS and the case not being compadable .
