Just saved you from a poor quality PSU and mobo. :)
Little more costly but well worth it. You will not have power issues or mobo failures.

+1 for this. You want a solid PSU and board. It's worth the little bit extra.

Most games are GPU dependent, i5 4460 still very capable/sufficient gaming CPU.
Btw, if you want to overclock that i5 4690k, you need a proper coolant, something like : http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr212e20pkr2
