Looks pretty good but you could save a bit of cash and get a bit more performance with the following:

You don't need that cooler, the stock one is fine for that chip. Dual-channel RAM gives better performance and 250gb SSD's are the new 120gb. Also changed the powersupply but change it back if you are going to upgrade/crossfire in the future.

Good luck!

It's absolutely perfect... you can just dump that 212 EVO though, can't OC so the stock cooler will be fine. I have the same motherboard and an i5-4590 :) I love it

Better temps arnt a bad thing though. :3

 

@TechGod

the hype 212 evo is loud. If he's OK with a loud cooler then it should be fine.

 You could go with a single 8gb stick it does not really mater much because you are not using the onboard graphics. And if you sell it the ram later a 8gb stick is worth more then 2x4gb 

Good luck, Have fun, Build PC, and have a Wii and PS2 as your only consoles.
