It's pretty good. If you can, I'd switch to Intel. Their CPU's are way better in my opinion.

I made the same mistake on cheaping out on the case. Buy a slightly more expensive case, you'll get way better cable management, you'll thank me later.

If this computer is only for gaming then 16GB is overkill. Just get 8GB, get the one in my signature, it's good.

You haven't linked a Power Supply. I'd get a Corsair one, at least 600W.
 
Depends what you change. I think it would really benefit if you changed to Intel. Also you might want to change your graphics card. If you can afford it maybe a Radeon HD 6870, if that. But if you keep everything how it is I would say most games on medium settings, although there might be some which you have to play on low.
 
Here's a build I've configured for you.

Case Corsair Carbide 300R http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-063-CS
HDD Seagate 1TB http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-257-SE
Processor i5 3450 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-407-IN
RAM 8GB RipJaws-X 1600MHz http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-060-GS
Motherboard Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-390-GI
Graphics card Radeon HD 6870 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-205-XF

Total £569.89 inc VAT.

Do you need a power supply and a copy of Windows too? If you need a power supply, a Corsair CX 600 would be fine http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-048-CS and if you need a copy of Windows, Windows 7 Home SP1 x64 works nicely http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/software/operatingsystems/gfc-02050.html

The rig I configured above would be better than the one you configured. If it's too expensive then you could get a cheaper motherboard and maybe an older CPU (i5 2300 or 2400, either would still be fine).
