I don't see why not, with transcoding done on the GPU its probably far more powerful than you need.  Though a newer GPU would be better its not even worth thinking about at current prices.

traded my GTX950 and 50 bucks to a friend, for the 970, and then the 950 went to another friend who GPU just died, he was only using a gtx 760, so still a upgrade all around

ok update, took out my 500gb drive for a 2 tb drive so I now have 14tb of usable storage, and upgraded to 32gb of ram... I might have a problem lmao

Was there a question or is this just a "look at my setup" post?

I guess the question is did i do a decent job of building a home server, just wanting feedback from the community. and look at my setup

if you think this is unreasonable you should see my main rig, and the question is how did i do on the system??

Fantastic server, the only potential issue I can see is potentially being limited in Plex transcodes & h.265 support.  I think the default for the 970 is 3, but as you might know you can override that (great resource) and it doesn't support h.265.  I ended up going with a Quadro M2000 which is in the $100-150 range on ebay, is single slot and low power.

 

Neither are huge issues though and your system sounds really rad!

Personally I just avoid transcoding at all, made sure all my clients can directplay.  But I don't generally use it remotely where transcoding can be essential.
