I recommend an XFX, EVGA or a Seasonic PSU over the Corsair one which you have selected.
PSU recommended: http://www.amazon.co.uk/EVGA-600W-Bronze-Power-Supply/dp/B00EN3FD20/
If you want a more efficient one, here it is: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-120pg0650gr

And, instead of the kingston RAM, a Gskill 1866Mhz RAM is recommended, its good and very good especially for gaming rigs like yours.

And, an Intel Core-i5 is better than the AMD FX processor, the i5 is better. :D

this CPU has lower power consumption (TDP) than the FX-8320. :)

And what about a mobo? Do you have one (if you are going with the i5, then the mobo's socket should be LGA1150)? If you don't have one, here is the suggested one: http://www.morecomputers.com/extra.aspx?pn=MAXIMUS%20VI%20HERO&referer=PCPart
If this mobo is out of budget, then this: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-z87k
and if you want even cheaper: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-motherboard-h97guardpro
These mobos are for the i5.
:D ;) :)
