Cooler is junk. If you nee a budget cooler get the Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo.

You want 2 sticks of RAM to make use of dual channel. Get 2 x 4GB of DDR3 1600. Corsair, GSkill, Crucial etc.

Power supply is junk. Corsair, Seasonic, PC Power and Cooling, XFX, Silverstone, Enermax, OCZ, Antec or the high efficiency Rosewill units for quality.

This would be my choice. Seasonic is the best and the G series is priced very good for a modular 80 Plus Gold unit.

SSD is OK but personally I would get a Samsung 840 Evo. Samsung drives are very fast and reliable.

Ditch the cpu cooler, and get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo. Get 2 x 4gb sticks of ddr3 1866mhz ram. Should be about 60 dollars. Scrap that Psu and get one from Xfx, Corsair(non-cx series), Seasonic, Antec, Ocz.

Other than that, fairly solid.

That's a beautiful machine..but for the 3 games you stated, you really don't need that much, Payday 2 is the most graphical out of them all but you don't need a pc like that to run it. I would personally not spend to much money on a lot of things, you could go with a FX 4300/ or any other 4 core or cpu, get a gpu like a 7790 or if you like the nividia side, something like a GTX 550 ti or 560 ti. For the ram i would go with 2x4gb not your current 1x8 as ram works better if its got a partner :p with the money you have saved you could get a 1tb/2tb seagate hard drive, as you are not going to be able to put everything on a 120gb SSD. The case is a good choice but there are other on the market i would suggest using www.scan.co.uk and using there huge selection of pc cases to spot a good one out, they tell you everything about the case and even link you to a video on one or two on them. Other than that you will be good to go :3
