Yes it is a good build after adding the extra 4gb ram. Up to you whether you want the DVD drive. The cooler and SSD would be a good addition if you can fit it into your budget, they are also simple upgrades later on. It's very similar to the current build I posted.

Do note that the GTX 970 is substantially faster than the R9 380, even though both are 4GB cards the GTX 970 outperforms it.

If you are going to be overclocking I would suggest this build. If you want to drop the cost a bit, we can lower the RAM to 8GB, lower the GPU a bit, take a small bit off the board, and/or replace for a locked CPU.

Umm i forgot that, that price also involves the operating system (Windows 10.) Also ill be buying from my local store where everything is around 10-20 dollars more expensive. So i want to lower the cost. Around $650 for the hardware. Can a good PC be built with that money?
