If GTX 660 is available at similar price point yhen get that one. It does have better gaming performance.
 
It runs cooler than Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge.

Really? 8350 runs cooler than 3570K? is the stock cooler enough for 8350, if you dont oc the rig or oc it a little say 1-2 years later??

@OP congratulations on new rig.. I am thinking of going for same config for a friend.
 
Yup .. ppl hav misconception that higher TDP means greater heat but rate of flow of heat is completely different matter...

Thank you for clarifying...
I was worried bout the heat factor of 8350 after reading the veiws of overclockers.net on 3570k vs 8350 out of box performance.. without any overclock..

amd fx 8350 or intel i5 3570k?

read and found that GIGABYTE GV-N660OC-2GD is BETTER than HD 7850 (and also cheaper!!)

So, Build Updated:

amd fx 8350 [CPU]
Corsair GS600 [PSU]
G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-4GBXL [RAM]
Corsair Carbide 200R [CASE]
M5A97 EVO R2.0 [MOBO]
GIGABYTE GV-N660OC-2GD [GPU]

Very well balanced build. After so many debates and fights I am really happy to see that you are able to fetch the best of the suggestions.

Regarding AMD Fx series, my previous built was FX 8150 and now using a FX 8350 and with both of 'em I have tried overclocking with the stock cooler. AMD FX 8 CORE stock coolers are of very good build quality and comes to two three copper heat pipe and perform really well.
The temperature at idle will be around 24 to 28 degree C and at full load with all the 8 cores at 95%+ load, it will be around 62 to 65 degree C.
For gaming this condition will never occur and only comes while doing some multithreaded intensive applications like video encoding using handbrake.
Now if you can create some custom aggressive fan ptofiles using the asus ai suite which comes with the Motherboard, the temp will be even lower. Using these kind of profile, I was able to run mine at 4.2 stable at full load uding the stock cooler.
