How do these components sound for a budget gaming build?

I aswell would recommend the xfx pro series, you really cant go wrong with those PSU, however the 6300 should be adequate for the build you are making, most games only use 4 cores, so the theoretical vs practical performance is not as large as appears.

Thanks about the PSU advice, I've heard that the Corsair builder series is really good, but I've also heard that the motherboard doesn't support 8gb sticks http://download.gigabyte.eu/FileList/Memory/memory_ga-970a-ud3.pdf , only up to 4GB. So I wouldn't want to get an 8GB stick and then it not be able to work! Also I live in the UK so I probably wouldn't be able to get that deal unfortunately.

Also thanks everyone else for the PSU advice! :)
