The motherboard is overkill, also get a better mouse and keyboard. Maybe a M65 with a K70

CPU: Intel i7-4790K @ 4.7GHz --- RAM: Lenovo 1600MHz 16GB --- MOBO: Gigabyte Z97-G7 --- GPU: EVGA GTX 970 FTW ACX 2.0+--- PSU: Corsair CX600 --- Case: Corsair Air 540 --- Cooler: NZXT Kraken X61 --- OS: Windows 8.1 --- Monitor: 24" AOC G2460P + Dell 19" --- Mouse: Logitech MX Perfromance --- Keyboard: Corsair K70 (Cherry MX Brown) --- Audio: Sennheiser HD558


Don't buy a GTX 980, it's overpriced! Buy 2 GTX 970s or 2 R9 290s intstead (the R9 290s would even be cheaper)

Apologies, I thought I added a question haha I was just wondering if the build was decent, i thought the mobo was abit overkill but i do plan on doing some editing too.

 

I will change the peripherals too :)

 

Thanks for the input.

 

I just want something that i can upgrade in the future without the mobo etc becoming too obsolete.
