Would highly recommend you swap out that PSU for this:
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151095 , Seasonic is very well built and trusted, come with a great warranty, fully modular and high efficiency.

I would also swap out the RAM to something by corsair or GSkill.

Better CPU, GPU, PSU, MoBo, RAM and $608 if all parts purchased from Newegg.
Would yield you better results
