I'm building a Custom PC, and I'd like some advice on my parts list.

So far I have purchased the case, memory, and hard drive.

Case:

Corsair Carbide SPEC-02

Memory:

Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB DDR3 (1600 MHZ)

Hard Drive:

WD Blue 1TB HDD (SATA 6Gb/s, 7200 RPM, 64 MB Cache)

Motherboard:

MSI Z97 ATX PC MATE

Processor:

Intel Core i5-4690K

Power Supply:

Corsair CX600 (I'm also thinking of getting EVGA 500W)

These are the main components I plan on getting. There are also some other components I might get:

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo (Also thinking of Corsair H60 Water Cooler)

AMD R9 380 graphics card


Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Get a different PSU such as XFX Core 550W, Seasonic S12II 520W,.. Also adding a SSD would be greatly beneficial for everything else.
You will definitely need a CPU cooler. Cooler Master Hyper 212 is the best budget cooler. H60 will work just fine too.

Unmatched Compatibility
Zero RAM Interference


Focusing on providing the widest range of
compatibility, the H7 utilizes an asymmetric slanted
heatpipe layout to move the heatsink away from the
RAM zone, Offering optimal compatibility for RAM
with tall heat spreaders on both Intel 115X and
AMD platforms.
