Is this custom desktop any good?

Basically, I asked a friend of mine who understands about computers (atleast more than me) to pick some parts for me at a reasonable price.

FC-PE09A PURE SERIES BLACK MIDI TOWER
INTEL CORE I5-2500K 3.30 GHZ LGA 1155 - BOX -
MUSHKIN 996770 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 PC3-10666 1333MHZ SILVERLINE SERIES DUAL CHANNEL KIT
ASUS P8H61-M REV3.0 SOCKET 1155
OCZ SLD3-25SAT3-120G.20 SOLID 3 120GB 2.5" SSD DATA III
XILENCE 580W RED WING SERIES PSU

These are the things he picked. I know, he didn't pick a graphics card. I was thinking about the GTX560. Would this fit together? Is anything else missing? If possible don't make recommendations and change things, because all these things don't cost much and seem reasonable.

I'd really appreciate your help. ^^

What would you be using this machine for? and what about a hard drive? 120gb will not be enough.

If you want to play any newer games, at least a 560ti...

This machine would be for gaming. I know 120gb isn't much and I might change that.

What's the difference from the normal GTX560?

Ti stands for titanium, its the next card up. I would go for that over a 560, big boost for the little price difference. Also I meant what games would you play?

World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria, League of Legends, Call of Duty maybe some BF3.... Also Far Cry 3 when it comes out and stuff.

Cards below the 570 region will start to have problems handling the demand of brand new games. Anything more demanding than BF3, you will need more than a 660ti. But a 660ti will run BF3 perfectly.
