You could gett an XFX 550 Watt PSU, you won't be needing 600 watts. That could save you some. I highly recommend trying to save just $60 for the 270x that is $200. You will be able to run games like Battlefield 4 on Ultra. It is always worth it in the end to go for whats just a little bit more.

The rest seems fine to me. You could get more decorative RAM at that same price but that is up to you.

It depends on what price I am given. I go with whatever gives me the best performance at its price range. I currently have an Nvidia 770, but I almost went with a 280x but right before my purchase, the price shot up on the 280x a $100 due to bitcoin miners.

the price I would like to stay below in $600 if you could give me advice on that, it would be a big help. thanks

You do pretty much have the best set up that you could have for this price. If you can get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo, that will help with noise and temperatures, but you can always add that later. You do also have room for an AMD 270 ( not the x version). You could also get a WD black HDD which will really help with speeds.

You could pick any of these and stay below $600
