Hello nickbhoy172;
It's a compatible parts list.
As far as I know CM doesn't make a 'Elite 500W PSU'. So it's more likely a CM Extreme Power model which no one should be too thrilled about. But it should be 'OK'.
Usually, for a 2500K model CPU we see a CPU cooler included since the K is the CPU of choice for overclocking.
