My thoughts:

1. You always want a quality psu. I have no idea about the quiet 80. The corsair offered would be better.

2. A stronger graphics card would be appropriate to your cpu.

3. A budget like yours deserves a ssd for the "C" drive.

4. The cooler uses a small 92mm fan and is no better than the stock intel cooler.
Look for a cooler with a 120mm fan like the cm hyper212. It will cool better and be quieter.

5. You buy a "K" cpu because you plan on overclocking to unlocks 20% more cpu performance. If you do not plan on overclocking, you can buy equivalent performance for less.

I've played Skyrim on the best settings with a rig considerably less powerful than yours with no lag. The fans speed up considerably during graphics intensive moments, but no affect on performance:
i5-2500k
GeForce 560ti-1gb
8 GB RAM

I will say that I bought a 650W Kingwin (off-brand) PSU that forced my computer to shutdown whenever playing StarCraft II and I had to replace it with a 760W PSU that was considered better quality and I have not had any issues since. So I echo what has been said about not skimping on the PSU and go for something high quality, especially for your investment.
