Yeah, that APU will not be able to push the GTX 970 to its full potential. Also, what's your budget? I guarantee you we can make you something better for the price.

I'm pretty sure that will bottleneck.  Also, that PSU sucks, and that SSD sucks.  What's your budget?

I think it's worth noting that all systems will bottleneck. There's always something holding a system back.

or i can put a gtx960 FTW in there for 100 cheaper and does a bit better

No.  Even an R9 380 performs better than a 960 and I think it will be cheaper.  Just don't get any ASUS or Gigabyte cards.
