I don't know much about computers, but I've always been told to use nVidia with intel chips and Radeon's w/AMD's.. Maybe that's an old wives tale tho.

I don't know much about Rosewill brand PSU's, but you might look for a comparable Thermaltake.

Also, you're going to need a 2nd hard drive. I highly recommend 2+tb. It's amazing how fast (and cheap) you can accumulate hundreds of games. Oh, and spend $10 for some Arctic Silver 5 (or comparable).
I agree with the i5-3570k suggestion. It's what I used in my PC and it works fantastic even on power saver mode. If you have a microcenter nearby they sell'em for $189.
