Deal or no deal? (PC building)

[ryguy978]

I saw this DIY supercombo on NewEgg and considering i'm looking to build a pc, it looks like the seemingly perfect deal. I know the power supply could be bumped up and i know the pny is kind of bad.
Why is the PNY bad? considering it's a 970, i thought it'd be worth it. Any tips or suggestions regarding this combo or really anything it duly noted and appreciated. Thanks!

Someone can only suggest deal or no deal if they know the price of it.
"See price in cart" doesn't count.

My bad. It's about 715$ last time i checked.

That's a good deal on the Xeon but unfortunately it won't overclock. If you won't overclock anyway it's just like having a good Core i7 CPU.

Ah when i looked it showed it as like $797.

It's perfect for people who aren't going to OC and have no need for integrated graphics.

Shows $795 atm.
