What would you change?

I'm trying to achieve decent power (able to play current games on medium to high settings (1080p) with 60fps) while remaining quiet operation.

Maybe spend a little less on your CPU and put more into your graphics card

The games played will primarily be older games which rely more on a cpu than a gpu. i know from experience that the r9 270x is able to handle bf4 with ease, and thats going to be the "heaviest" game the system will ever run.

a few things get a cheaper PSU, hyper 212 evo and then you could get a better gpu, i i would go for what @SAV1OUR listed

Are there any truly quiet cheap PSUs then?

This will perform much better. A 4670K and a GTX 770 are a little bit better balanced than an 8320 and a GTX 780, especially if silence is a goal, since both of those consume less power and thus will have less fan noise needed to adequately cool them.

the one that @SAV1OUR listed would be just fine the CX series is just fine, i would have not recommend to go with that one before because i thought that it was making my computer really loud, but i found out it was something else and the CX series is a good line and i have had no problems with my CX500m

Great, thanks for the replies everyone
