Tall RAM, wouldn't choose a Thermaltake PSU over a 500w Antec Green for example, no video card, and a case with no cable management features ( did a build with it ). This is not gaming oriented at all.

It's really not. You'd be lucky if you'd be able to play Minecraft on a low-medium preset. For gaming, at minimum you'd want a 6850 / 550 ti or higher. You could drop down to an i3-2100 and upgrade to a discrete mid range card like a 6850 which goes on sale for around $120.

Like the guy above said you wont be doing any proper gaming on integrated graphics.

Bumping down to an i3 2100 and adding a better video card is a good choice if you have to stick to a budget. I'm currently using an i3 with a GTX 560 ti and its fantastic for games at a good price.
