Well, long story short, I replaced all the parts except for the PSU, which was the problem anyways /facepalm. Oh well. Here's what's in the box.

Case - Fractal Design R4 w/side panel (was some crap Gateway)
PSU - CM EX2 625W (was OCZ Modstream 600W)
CPU - AMD FX-6300 (was i5 2.6GHz)
Mobo - Asus M5A97 LE R.20 (was some crap intel board)
RAM - 8GHz DDR3 1333 (same)
HD - 120GB Kinston V300 (old was 1TB WD, keeping that as storage)
Vid - Sapphire 7770 GHz edition (same)

Fractal design is a decent case, for 129+tax. Very quiet. I see they also covered up the top fan brackets with sound deadening as well, little nicer than my solution :P

Decent cable management
