Decent building components for home build?

[Sean Mock]

I was wondering if these would be decent components that will run games like Minecraft, Skyrim, League of Legends, and such games. I am also looking to be affordable.

Just looked closer and the case/psu combo was a seasonic so if you like it go with your orginal case/psu combo.
