To be on the safe side you should get a better power supply other than that it is good,
Pcpartpicker's wattage estimate is not always correct so add 150 to the estimate and get a power supply that is 100 above that because a power supply operates best at 50-80% capacity, besides that it is a pretty good build.

Your build looks very solid. The only thing I would do is get an aftermarket cooler. The stock cooler with the FX 6300 is terrible and that CPU really shines with a decent overclock. The Gigabyte board you have chosen will do a great job helping you OC that CPU.

This is a minor tweak to your list. All I did was add a good budget cooler. Should be good for 4.4-4.5GHz on near stock voltage.
