IF you get the corsair PSU's range you can get sleeved cables as an extra ( just a hint so you dont have to do it your self ).
AMD have been on standstill the past 3 years when it comes to "new cpu generation" like gen 3 on PCIE and other parts.
there intel are ahead when it comes to that ( but more expensive ).
in my opinnion the diffrence on the 8350 and the one you listed aint mutch diffrence exept newer "gen" of it.

The biggest difference is the silicon. Intel chips and FX 8350 or less are all silicon lotteries. The FX-9000s just almost always have good silicon. If you take a look at the OC stats of FX chips on RoG, none of the FX-8000s can do 5GHz (Last time I checked) but a lot of the FX-9000s can.
I would drop the CPU to and FX-8350, and get 2x4GB AMD Gamer Memory to get a video card upgrade to the R9 280x DCII.
DO NOT CHEAP OUT ON THE PSU!!! It is the heart of your system. An 80+ Gold rated fully modular PSU will last longer, and save you some money. Cheapin' out on the PSU is like replacing the engine in your car with a 350cc motorcycle engine so you can afford a supercharger.

Also 270 is not worth it. As A-Man says above try for the 280.
OCZ Vertex isn't good compared to Samsung EVO = http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-EVO-Series-2-5-Inch-MZ-7TE120BW/dp/B00E3W15P0
Do you also really want to be buying all these parts from 7 different sources?

Rosewill's 750 Capstone is made by Super Flower. It's the best PSU around 99 bucks. You can ask the Overclock.Net PSU forum all about it and I'm guaranteeing they will tell you it's the best one around $99.
. I understand being a brand person ( I have 3x290x right now), previous rig had 2x NVIDIA 690 SLI. I've been sticking two graphics cards together as much as I can since I had two 12MB Voodoo2's. The 780 is a better card for the money however.
Don't get the RADEON ram. The chips themselves are utter junk. Get some G.SKILL. If I remember correctly AMD does not read XMP profiles and high RAM speeds don't really go into play on it. (I'm an Intel guy, if I'm wrong someone tell me otherwise)

NZXT and Corsair have the best closed loops.
For fans, I recommend the Corsair SP120 series and the Noctua NF-F12 fans.
