It would definitely be a good difference to what you have now, especially with an SSD in there.

The parts at the moment will fit no problem.

However, I'd suggest a couple of changes (if you can):
- CPU: Downgrade to a i5 3570K if you're not going to be doing anything other than gaming (not video work and such), to save some money.
- RAM: Also overkill (see above), 8GB is enough for today. (You can always upgrade later if you need it).
- SSD: Get a bigger model if you can.
- PSU: Unless you're going to be using dual-graphics cards and such, a 500W/600W quality model should do.

All in all, there's nothing specifically wrong with your build, just that you can save a bit of money getting slightly cheaper stuff (for not much difference) if you're just gaming.

Ram to Corsair 1x8GB DDR3 1600Mhz
