I would change the power supply and the FX 8350, the fx 8350 to an fx 6300 and overclock it. How much is your budget?

If you plan to overclock your CPU at a higher frequency, then definitely go with the FX-8350. If you overclock and do a Crossfire, then a 600W wouldn't be enough and I would recommend a 750-850W.
I would also recommend to invest in a SSD as gaming pc usually have it, and people don't regret it. Other from that, the PC is ready to play high quality demanding games.

@DeadGraphics: My budget supposed to be 800€ but that setup i posted costs 855€ and i am not planning to overclock.

@Eduello: is that 550W surely enough for this build?

Yeah 550W is enough since the PSU is very high quality.
