Why buy G-Sync + Monitor when you could buy a G-Sync Swift instead? I'd also recommend changing ram to something like Corsair Vengeance Pro or HyperX Fury so you can nicely colour match - if thats something you want to do.

That monitor costs nearly $900 but his is less than $500 so its just a smart way to save some money ;D

 

Everything seems good to me, seems like you really did your homework (maybe you could take the RAM down to 8GB)  ;) being in the UK makes it hard for me to judge prices but it doesnt seem too unreasonable! 

CPU: AMD FX6300 Motherboard: MSI 970A G43 RAM: 8GB Corsair Memory GPU: NVidia GTX 770 Case: Fractal Design Define R4 White w/ Window Storage: 180GB SSD + 2TB HDD PSU: Corsair RM850 Display: HP IPS 1200p Cooling: Fully Watercooled Keyboard: CM Storm TK White  Mouse: Razer Deathadder Sound: Temporary Speakers Operating System: Windows 8.1 Pro Phone: OnePlus One 64GB Sandstone

Change your RAM to 8GB. You won't utilize more than 8GB in gaming. Change the case with a 730T if you really want the looks/design. Other than that, you're good. :D

Get only 8GB of ram instead of 16, you don't need a ton for gaming.

 

Get a much cheaper case, that one you have selected is quite pricey. (I personally like the Air 540, looks amazing, shitloads of space too!)

 

 

What is this "Gsync" at the bottom of the list? I'm guessing its the GSync module for monitors.

Specs: CPU - Intel i7 8700K @ 5GHz | GPU - Gigabyte GTX 970 G1 Gaming | Motherboard - ASUS Strix Z370-G WIFI AC | RAM - XPG Gammix DDR4-3000MHz 32GB (2x16GB) | Main Drive - Samsung 850 Evo 500GB M.2 | Other Drives - 7TB/3 Drives | CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i Pro | Case - Fractal Design Define C Mini TG | Power Supply - EVGA G3 850W

Yep, the G-sync module is available through Digital Storm online. You send in your ASUS VG248QE and they add the G-Sync support for $300.
