First time PC build and looking for advice on PSU and CPU cooler

[Rassaru]

Hi everyone, new here and new to PC building. Always bought pre-built units up until now but I've decided I want to build my own this time. I've pretty much selected all the components I want but the parts confusing me most are the PSU and the CPU cooler. Obviously if I'm spending a fair bit of money on all the other parts I want to make sure I'm getting good quality cooling and power supply.

I'm mainly looking for something for everyday use with a moderate amount of gaming. Not planning to overclock (initially anyway) and I'm not looking to run any really demanding games at high settings. The newest game I play on PC is probably GTA 4 and I'm not much of an online gamer. Budget is around the £5-600 mark.

This is the spec I'm planning on going with:
Case: CiT Vanquish (will be replacing stock fans with better ones and adding 2 top fans)
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-D3HP
CPU: AMD A10-7870K boxed w/ Wraith-Light Cooler
RAM: 8GB OR 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 2400MHz (not sure I need 16GB)
OS: Windows 10
Also going to have at least a 1TB HDD (possibly 2TB) an SSD for the OS and a few games and a DL DVD-RW drive but haven't decided which specific ones yet.

So with all of that, will the boxed Wraith Light cooler be sufficient for the CPU or should I look at something better and if so what? The PSU's I have mainly been looking at are these:

Which of these do you think is most suited to my system. The whole 'single rail vs. multiple rail' thing is what I find most confusing but after reading about on here I've discovered it's not so important as I first thought and I doubt my build will strain anything too much anyway.

Apologies for the masses of text but wanted to make sure I included as much information as I could. Any help is greatly appreciated and if you need any further information ask away and I'll try to offer as much as I can. Thanks in advance.

Hi Rassaru.
You will be fine with stock CPU cooler if you won't overclock your CPU (which you said you won't).
For the PSU I would go with your 3. pick because EVGA is a trusted PSU company, be quiet I personally don't know much about (just know them for their PSU coolers).
If you need 16 GB? Probably not. 8 GB is more than enough and you can add plus 8 GB stick later on.
Hope I helped

Thanks, yeah that was a big help. EVGA are what's been recommended by most people I've asked anyway. The only reason I was looking at the 1st be quiet model was it was gold rated for efficiency compared to the EVGA's bronze rating for only about £6 more, however that is a limited offer so may very well be unavailable by now and back to it's regular price which is over £20 more. I don't suppose a few % on the efficiency rating really makes all that much difference anyway.

Not planning to overclock initially as I'll admit I know nothing about it. Might be something I look into in the future but by that point I can always upgrade the cooler anyway. May also look into buying a dedicated graphics card to run alongside the onboard R7 on the CPU but that will be further down the line also as I know the onboard has enough power to run the few games I play for the moment.

The main reason I was looking at 16GB of that RAM is I'm finding it difficult to locate anywhere selling single 8GB stick. Don't want to buy 8GB as 2 sticks of 4GB and then have to buy 2 further sticks of 8GB down the line when I do want to upgrade thereby costing me more in the long run.

Thanks for the advice though, very helpful.
