Hitachi Deskstar 7K80 NCQ 80GB SATA-II 8MB Cache

LG LG GSA-4167BAL 16x16 DVD±RW Dual Layer ReWriter (Black)

Looks good apart from one thing, Asus A8N32 is not crossfire it uses the nforce 4 sli chipset. So you will want a diferent mobo if you want to go crossfire at any point

Yes 580w is easily sufficient based on what you have specified to allow you to overclock. It does look like a good balanced overall specification as well
