Hmm, seems good, I may want to OC the CPU a bit that is why i opped for a bit better Mobo, PSU 80+ Bronze from EVGA at 650W should be plenty and the R9 280 OCed aswell to get the perfomance of an R9 280X out of it

A decent 500w is already plenty for that. 650w is overkill. 

Better: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/2zBrRB

Avoid the G46. It often has issues with fx 8 cores.

I was referring to CoolBeans' system. The system you just linked would quite easily run off of a 450w.
