If an upgrade is necessary I'd like to keep it between £250 - £280
Why not get this: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/hTnJgs Everything done for 286 pounds.
You get an fx 8350 and a much better 990fx motherboard. And with the cm 212 evo I think you can easily stable OC it up to 5 GHz.
Also the highest supporting ram frequency for the fx 8320/8350 is 1866 mhz. So 2133 is a waste. I didn't find the cooling compounds you wanted to buy in pcpartpicker.

The 2133Mhz RAM is one of the cheapest on Amazon at the moment. Like I said my budget is no more than £280 and it's strict so I can't really go any higher.
The motherboard is temporary for a few months then I can simply get another and I'm absolutely fine with the 8320 as I can overclock it to 8350 speeds quite easily. Even then I could simply upgrade and put the parts I upgraded into a seperate machine and sell it
Get this board then instead of the msi:

Edited: Did not look at link above by Akhil, I agree then with your board choice for his budget.
As far as memory GSKILL is a good company but you will save yourself lots of headaches if you get ram that is on the mobo oems recomended sheet. Otherwise you get to back and forth between the memory company and the mobo company for RMA.

Why waste money buying a mobo now and again later. Get yourself the extreme3 for 75 pounds and the 8320 and you're good to OC it upto 4.5 -4.8 GHz. You wouldn't cross your budget.
