Yes, this is a very good card and it will serve you well for a long time at 1080p gaming at high settings. It's currently the best performance/price option out there too. Make sure to buy from a good brand though (Asus, Gigabyte, EVGA, MSI, Gainward, etc). What brand you get doesn't matter a lot. Difference is noise and temperature levels. After some searching on google, you can safely decide which brand you want, but then again, it doesn't make a world of difference.

Nice build you've got there! Just want to mention that you won't ever use 16gb RAM on games. However it can be used to load applications to it so that they start faster. (just a heads up)

I would rather go with an i5 4690k and a water cooling (H100i maybe) for overclocking, 8 or 16 GB of RAM depending on your preference with the GTX 970. I'd drop the SSD too - very little benefit for too high of a cost.
