Not necessarily, you may have to go for a slightly less powerful GPU however.

What kind of Harddrive do you already have? You would not want a do a big time upgrade, but end up using a old 20GB. IDE harddrive.

Even though that case "looks cool" you might think, im not sure how well the cooling would be on it. Something like a coolermaster RC690 isnt as flashy, but it hsa great cooling.
