This is a good build. I suggest getting a CPU cooler for your processor like the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus or Evo but make sure your case can accommodate it. If you plan on serious gaming, you might want to upgrade the graphics card.
 

Oh! Wow i never thought of that! Thank you! And yes the computer is going to take place of my console. What Graphics card would you suggest?
 
It depends on the resolution and budget. Given your budget you might have enough to go for an HD 7850 2GB (or 1GB if you don't.) If you have more to spend, then you might even go for either an HD 7870 or a GTX 660. Also you can overclock the graphics card for more performance. If you're thinking of overclocking your processor, then an aftermarket cooler is a must.
