if i'm not mistaken, the athlon 760K is an FM2 socket. you're going to need to get an FM2 board for it to work, not an AM3/AM3+ board.

in case that's not a 2 module kit, you're better off getting 2x4G DDR3-1600 instead of 1x8GB.

aside from those, it's a decent PC.

Well...The 760k is a FM2 socket processor and the M5A97 EVO R2.0 is an AM3+ socket motherboard. It won't work together. I would recommend the FX-6300: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-fd6300wmhkbox
Which is just a bit more than the 760k but it's much stronger in games.

For the GPU, you can get a much stronger gpu for the same price: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/msi-video-card-n7602gd5oc

For the psu, the XFX unit is much better quality for only a bit more, and you also get an extra 50w: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1550sxxb9

This Bitfenix Shinobi case will have better airflow and overall better quality: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/bitfenix-case-shinobi
Aerocool's cases are low quality and they overall build isn't that great. It also probably uses weak fans and the four fans won't provide that great airflow.
