You could go with a cheaper r9 280x, or go the r9 290 as suggested above. As for compatibility, everything should be compatible.

use Pcpartpicker.com to check for incompatibilities. It'll help show you possible problems.

My friend, why don't you get an R9 290 Tri-x, which could ace that R9 280X and is only a bit more Cash?
and as the PSU, mm, i woudln't go for that one, haven't heard much "Excellent reviews" I'd got for a Corsair Bronze + more than that one since it's more reliable in my opinion.

Hope this Helps :)

Argh, I have looked at the corsairs 600w psu's and when i've put up threads about the xfx vs the corsair everyone and their mum has said use the xfx, it's made by seasonic, very few corsair psu's are.
Regarding the r9 290. I was initially going to get it, but I am trying to save money on the system, if my parents allow me to spend more money, I will definitely get the r9 290, if not the 280x it is.
