The components you select will let you play any game. However, the PSU you purchased might cause issues. The CX series are of low quality. The main capacitor is a Panasonic model, which is actually quite acceptable despite being rated at 85C instead of 105C. The remaining capacitors are CapXon models from China, which are not very reliable. In summary, the PSU is decent and should not damage your computer or cause an explosion. It falls short in quality for high-end parts and overclocking.

It would be wise to boost your GPU's performance, while your CPU should run smoothly at default settings.
😉
Great setup, congratulations
For GPU upgrades, consider MSI Afterburner if you're unsure about the tools to use.

I still possess one at my work desk on a computer, having used it for three years without any issues. The sole concern was coil whine, which was present only because the unit was brand new.
