New build

Hello all.

I hope I am posting in the correct area,apologies if not.

I’m after some advice on what components I can use for my son’s new pc.
He will be using it mainly for games like Fortnite. He won’t be using a 4K screen, just full HD at the maximum.
I’ve haven’t built a pc for a while and I’m a little rusty, so I’d appreciate a bit of advice/suggestions.
This is what I have come up with so far:-
Processor –AMD FX 8350
M/board Asus M5A 78L-M plus/USB3.
(I have seen the processor & m/boards on eBay as a bundle, it looks like a good combination.)
Cooler - NOCTUA NH-U14S ?
SSD 512 GB , O/S & DDR3 Ram(already have)

I’m struggling with choosing a psu , case & especially GPU
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Many thanks.

Is that a good one? Will it be enough?

One thing I have forgotten to ask about is, can you recommend a wi-fi card please?
