Upgrade Spec Check Please :)

So currently I have a -

Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 5850
Asus M5A97 EVO AMD 990X (Socket AM3+)
AMD Phenom II X4 Quad Core 955be
4 gigs of ram
PC Power & Cooling Silencer Mk III Series 600W '80 Plus Bronze' Modular Power Supply

All in a Cooler Master Elite 430 Case.

Now I'm thinking of doing quite a substantial upgrade my current basket looks like.

YOUR BASKET
1 x Powercolor Radeon R9 280X TurboDUO 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £209.99
1 x Intel Core i5-4670K 3.40GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - OEM £159.95
1 x TeamGroup Vulcan RED 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLD316G2133HC11ADC01) £119.99
1 x Gigabyte Z97P-D3 Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £69.95
1 x Raijintek Themis Direct Contact CPU Cooler £19.99
1 x Antec TrueQuiet 120 120mm Case Fan £7.99
Total : £597.46 (includes shipping : £8.00).



From what I can see it should be all compatible, just wondering what you think before I go ahead. Any obvious things I've missed?

I was thinking that briefly, but I think for gaming Intel normally comes out on top so I was thinking of jumping ship.

So my current ram is
Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit

If I go with amd what would it be worth upgrading the whole lot for faster speed? or just go with more ram?

So new basket looks like.

YOUR BASKET
1 x Powercolor Radeon R9 280X TurboDUO 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card £209.99
1 x AMD Piledriver FX-8 Eight Core 8350 Black Edition 4.00GHz (Socket AM3+) Processor - Retail £131.99
1 x Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (KHX1600C9D3X2K2/8GX) £59.99
1 x Antec TrueQuiet 120 120mm Case Fan £7.99
Total : £409.96 (includes shipping : ).



That will give me a total of 12 gigs of ram which should do nicely, also forgot to mention I have a gelid tranquilo cpu cooler which should be fine to use with the amd chip.

Yeah the case fan is just to replace one of the front which is very slowly and loudly dying so anything will do really
