Before I get THIS BUILD I'd like some insight over the whole build.

I'll be using the build for light photoshop, gaming (CS:GO/Skyrim/Borderlands 2), tons of internet browsing.

I need to include windows 8, while not going over $600.

Questions:
1. Any bottlenecking present? - I've read that the fx-6300 isn't good for gaming.
2. Will this all fit into the case i'm getting? - Heard that you need to know stuff fits specifically into this case.
3. What do you think is the best way to install windows 8?

I UPDATED THIS BUILD
 
Solution
1) Unless you OC the heck out of the FX-6300, you may be right at the margin for bottleneck. My FX-6350 @ 4.7 GHz was OK with my GTX 960 FTW and my R9-280, but marginal with my GTX 970.

2) Everything in your list will fit in the HAF 912 case. I have one too.

3) HDD or SSD? If HDD, just boot to the installation disk and follow the prompts.
