Replace the ram like glc said, and you really don't need that much power. You can save some money with a lower power unit and then use that to jump to the I7-2600k that does game better.
Newegg.com - CORSAIR HX Series CMPSU-1000HX 1000W ATX12V 2.2 / EPS12V 2.91 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Modular Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply
That will handle any overclocking you want to do as well.
AnandTech - The Sandy Bridge Review: Intel Core i7-2600K, i5-2500K and Core i3-2100 Tested
The i7 makes a sizable difference in some games.
BTW on the ram I would get 2x4gb sticks instead of 4x2gb.
