Good job, but i would go for a better quality PSU, and if you decide to go with an AIO liquid cooler, get a 240mm one or don't even get one, you are better off with air cooling.

And also the strix 970 doesn't overclock all that well.

Try to do something with the cable managment as well. You might make it prettier!

No problems with the PSU and there was no more room for a 240MM radiator.

I'm just saying that the CX models of corsair tend to be a bit sketchy at times.

 

EDIT: If there was no room for a 240mm rad, i would go for air cooling instead.

Its when the GPU starts bending downwards and is no longer in parallel/does not look straight.

Better quality PSU mate? For what he needs, the Corsair CX series is perfect

Long time Linus fan with too many different forums to keep track of LTT's.

Ah ok, yeah the card is pretty heavy. But can this have any bad/no good influence?

The only real bad thing that can come out from this is that the card would look horrendous when it sags, but some people have been reporting weird freezes but 

that may be due to the card becoming loose. You can search the internet for a fox for this, but you can start by routing your power cables in a way that supports the GPU  ;)

You need to sort that cable management bro...

Already done cable management, but thanks for saying ;)
