Everything here looks to be fine except for the PSU. The one you have there is 650W which is more than enough but the GPU your getting demands at least 12v and 26A at the minimum. The current PSU you have only supplies 19A.

Heres another option. the problem is its going to be more expensive due to the amps being higher. If your not planning on doing intense gaming you may want to tone downt he GPU a bit.

Power supply: nah, get this instead

The 8800GTS 320MB is reasonably powerful (although the 768MB GTX is 50% faster in top titles, at least!) but it doesn't have enough memory for my liking. You should really have at least 512MB these days.
CPU, Case, Motherboard and RAM are all fine, as are the hard disk and optical drives.
