    HAF932 is an easy win out of those, followed by the Antec. The other two are meh, wouldn't recommend them.

    Are pretty much all of these acceptable? Also should I up the PSU just in case or is it fine at 650W?
    650w will run it fine, although for a build like yours people run anything up to 800w. I'm running a high-quality 750w for a build like yours

    No.

    1. H61 motherboard = no overclocking, which is the entire point of getting a K series processor. Either get a P67/Z68 board with the 2500K and have the option of overclocking, or get a regular 2500 with an H61/H67 motherboard if you want to save a little money and never plan on overclocking.

    2. Sandy Bridge uses dual channel, not triple channel. You'd want 2 or 4 sticks of RAM (preferably 2... 2x2GB for 4GB total, or 2x4GB for 8GB total)

    If you futureproof well then shouldn't need to upgrade more than once every 2-3 years.
