First off, scrap the 8320, it's not really worth it for the meanwhile for the games you want to play such as ARMA maybe. I recommend you pick up a FX-6300 for 30-40 GBP cheaper. Your MoBo is also good but the RAM is not, switch it out for some G-Skill 8GB RipJaws or Corsair Vengeances if you want to OC.
Also your PSU can break down, it depends, go for a solid EVGA 500W or a good XFX.

Also you could switch that casing out for a CoolerMaster N200 which is slightly better.
The 8320 may come in handy down the line WHEN things start using more cores,so i would go with the 8320 if you can.I don't know what you mean by the RAM,its fine,you don't need to change it.

No dont scrap the 8320 if he has the money get it. His ram is fine. The mobo is ok but not the best. And swap the psu out for a XFX 550 Watt brilliant quality.

Thank you for your feedback guys, I think I'll swap out the PSU to an XFX.

I wouldn't scrap the 8320, it's a good CPU, and utilizes more cores, which most modern games take advantage of. That RAM will do him perfectly fine, no need to switch them out and that case is great, has good ventilation and room for upgrades.
That's a pretty good build.
Switch out the PSU for this [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] , much better build quality.

HIV wrote what is your budget?
I'll make another one for the same price, btw pc part picker does not give a realistic cost in delivery ect.
I'd recommend this the price includes shipping

I only said that switching out the 8320 to the FX-6300 because he referred to wanting to save money. Tis all, but yes of course the 8320 is better in the long run for future games.
