for gaming you will only want 4GB RAM, and the best graphics card you can possibly afford (within reason)

this is what i'd do with the money your going to spend
ive only changed the cooler because i have no idea what the performance of the one you chose was, and i wanted to make sure it fitted (that thing is HUGE). corsair H50 will be nice and quiet too :)

so if i take thes specs. i loved to put an 8gb of ram in it.only 30£ extra
will i be able to oc my proccesor? to 4.8ghz. with these specs?
 
yes you should easy overclock to thos specs with that cpu and cooler, and 8gb will not be usefull in gaming applications, as most games dont really require much memory to play.
 
nice spec, i would consider getting corsair H50 instead of the prolimatech cpu cooler.
not only becuase of tight fit, because the performance would better also.
