Good Day! so I'm planning on building my first gaming and I would like to know if my build is good enough to play high end games with low to med settings, and I'm also having troubles in picking a PSU so, any suggestion is appreciated.

CPU: AMD fx-6300
Mobo: Gigabyte 970A-DS3P
Graphics:Sapphire r7 240 1Gb DDR5 128bit
RAM: 2x 4Gb Kingstone HyperX fury 1866mhz cl10
HDD: 1 seagate 1TB 7200rm
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212x
4x 120mm case fan

I'm thinking to go with a thermaltake New Litepower 600W APFC Power Supply , is this good enough or should I go lower or higher, have no plans on OCing

higher wattage PSU is always better :D 
These components will use around 300 watts

You can go for 400watt or higher if you want, I recommend you brands seasonic(best but most expensive)/xfx/evga/Rosewill

this one is 520watt and bronze certified http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seasonic-power-supply-m12i...
