For ram you really should get 8 gb that comes as two 4gb sticks. Also you want speeds of at least 1866. I would look at gskill or corsair to find some good ones. You should get a better psu as well although that one will work, look at seasonic or xfx mostly. As for the SSD it used to be really easy to recommend the 840 evo which is a great SSD but there have been some big price cuts so that now you can get some bigger slower SSDs for a good price which makes it interesting

I take your word for quality but since l am not from USA that PSU costs 212Lev which is BGN currency so its pretty expensive for me if you can suggest a lower Wat one that costs less would go for it
