Per-core performance on the 8320 will be the same, and since LoL doesn't use more than 2 cores, it will do nothing for you in CPU performance.
An 8320 would be a good CPU for streaming though, which is something LoL players like to do for some reason.
Nearly all games are using 4 CPU cores or fewer, and many are using one or two. That's why intel chips always come out ahead in gaming tests, because even the i3's are going to beat out an 8-core AMD FX series if the game is only using a couple of cores.
Your GPU is the biggest blunder.

Yeah but that GPU is $99 on sale and runs LoL and D3 at 80+ FPS on ultra with ease, plenty good enough.
I'd buy the 270X you are selling but I don't really see the benefit/point even for just another $10, how used is it?
