Trying to put together a new computer. Currently running an e6600 but I don't feel like it is near enough for running SWTOR optimally.

Was thinking of grabbing these parts:
Case Rosewill CHALLENGER Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower Computer Case, comes with Three Fans-1x Front Blue LED 120mm Fan, 1x Top 140mm Fan, 1x Rear 120mm Fan, option Fans-2x Side 120mm Fan
Mobo ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
CPU Intel Core i5-2500K Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz (3.7GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 BX80623I52500K
RAM G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBRL
HD Seagate Barracuda ST3160316AS 160GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
but my question is whether or not I can use my old power supply with this new setup. I currently own a
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139001 Corsair SLI Certified 520w
I am also planning to import my GTX 560 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121446) from my old PC.
Can this PSU support the CPU and GPU?
Anyone have any recommendations on this build?
For example, is that memory really necessary? I don't plan to do much OCing, if any at all.
Also - would there be a better HD to grab? I have a 3.0gb/s SATA from my previous build, prolly to be used as a secondary, and also an external 1TB.
Thanks,
Jake
