Yes those will all work. The PSU is GREAT! I would recommend something a bit cheaper than the Capstone PSU, but we'll have to see what your budget is.

What is your budget?

How about this build below:

Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory ($64.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($66.64 @ Amazon)
Video Card: PowerColor Radeon HD 7850 2GB Video Card ($154.99 @ Newegg)
Case: NZXT Source 210 (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case ($34.28 @ Amazon)
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 430W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V Power Supply ($34.99 @ Newegg)

* CPU is better than the Intel one you listed.
* Mobo has plenty of options
* Case is pretty good for the $.
* PSU is plenty for this type of build.
* Included a resonable GPU for this budget range.
