I dont care too much about graphics although they would be nice. i just want my games to play well!
The games I play are (From most played order)
1.League of Legends
2.Rome total war 2
3.GTA V

System I plan on building so far
Motherboard- z97 e
CPU-i5 4460
CPU cooler-Cooler Master hyper 212 EVO
GPU-gtx 960
Ram-Kingston HyperX fury 4x2 1866mhz DDR3
PSU-superNOVA 650 G1 80+ Gold
Storage-WD blue 1TB
Case-Sentey® KRON GS-6005
Anything i can do to get more for my money or any suggestions? Im not 100% on everything im just trying to research all i can!

All RAM will perform to the specification stated so you can scrimp a little there. An SSD is a worthwhile investment. Other than that, your build looks like it'll work fine though.

What exactly is the difference between ATX and Micro besides the size?
Like I said i'm new to computer building so any info you can give will be helpful thanks!

Nothing really, just size and the fact that most MicroATX boards will skimp on features in exchange for their small size (PCIe slots and SATA ports mainly). Hope this helps

No problem! I'm here to help! The SSD improves greatly on Windows boot times and also game load times. It can also eliminate that dodgy texture glitch that you get when your HDD can't keep up with how quickly you are moving in the map.
