Everything looks good to me. I would recommend checking out a better case. Not like that one is bad, but you have a pretty high end system..and a low end case. Show it off! There are a ton that are 80-110 dollars that are pretty good!

Looks fine, I'd change out that PSU for this one Corsair HX650 and get a 212 over the Arctic Cooler.

Though Crysis is a pretty demanding game, if he want's to max everything out with mods I'd recommend getting at least a 670 or better.

If a window is necessary you should look at the Corsair 300R I quite like it.

Here's a couple I have personally used. I know it's Newegg and US only, but you get the point lol These are all $100 USD.

Corsair 300R - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139016&name=Computer-Cases
CM Scout - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119196&name=Computer-Cases
CM Scout II - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119263&name=Computer-Cases

EDIT: Remember, if you buy a case that's under $110, don't expect good cable management.

Those are my favorite. I can even recommend the Antec 900. It's old, but a good case.

I forgot to mention, if you want to run Crysis 1080p maxed out with mods, get a 670 or better. It's a very intensive game.
