The ram you're looking at and the GPU are both going to work well with your motherboard. The most important thing is the wattage of your power supply. Which PSU do you have/are you going to get?

Power supply unit = PSU :)
Also that CPU won't work with that motherboard. That motherboard only accepts processors that use the LGA1155 socket and that CPU uses the FM2+ socket. This CPU should fit your motherboard and is in the same price range as the one you proposed: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116912

Your power supply on the other hand is fine and will easily handle your system.

You saved me right there, I changed the CPU but also considered another PSU Take a look and tell me is this better or the PSU dosen't matter, also the more wattage thte PSU has the better what? And is this a better PSU in wattage terms and compatibility? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817152028

The PSU doesn't matter you're not going to get a high end graphics card. The Raidmax won't be much of an improvement over the Rosewill so I would not recommend getting it.

Generally more wattage means the PSU is better but some manufacturers use better quality components than others, so it's not set in stone. Usually you can find out what is the best power supply by Google searches, reviews and threads on the internet.
