RE: My new computer
No, too small for the price. Get at least a 120GB SSD which should cost less than 100$ nowadays. The Samsung 840 is a great choice.
Also, the cpu that you chose is way too expensive/pro-grade. Unless you do heavy video editing you don't need it. For games & everyday use get a 4670K(4 cores, 4 threads) or a 4770K for HT(4 cores, 8 threads).
In general, you have chosen to "cheap-out" (I think it's an expression) on the wrong stuff. For example, you cannot use a 500W power supply with such a system. It's low especially when you consider what you lose due to efficiency. If you want a 780 then get a 650W or similar. For a more affordable computer buy a cheaper case too.
The price you initially said ($2,829.01) is...big. What is your new price point if you want something more affordable?
