The Rosewill RD600 is $39.99 after rebates at Newegg and is rated as 80+, the Corsair CX500 is $29.99 after rebates at Newegg and is rated 80+Bronze, its a better psu all round for your build, other than that, I'd say to opt for the extra $30 or so and get a CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO cpu cooler. Its an excellent cooler and will keep your cpu much cooler and quieter. The stock AMD cpu coolers sound like freight trains on your desktop and don't work all that well.

Power supply is bit of over-kill unless you are adding case fans or led. You will fine with even 500watts, if you want to save some money.
Everything else is in great order and that is one nice decent build. You are good to go with this build setup.
Good luck :)
