I don't know where you are getting the GTX 970 Turbo but the R9 390 Sapphire is cheaper than any turbo you can get in Sweden.

GTX 970 Turbo http://www.prisjakt.nu/produkt.php?p=3119695

 

You will get a little more for a lower price with the 390 but you might need a slightly bigger PSU.

That's a good deal and very nice first build, I guess it feels good having it after saving up for such a long period!  How did you finding building for the first time or have you got experience building?

this is the first time i built a computer and it was a really frustrating experience but also it felt so good when i was done. i´ve watched linus for quite some time and learned most from him. i wanted to build it myself because then i would have a better understanding of whats inside my pc.

First time is always the hardest, yeah atleast now you know if you have an issue you will be confident enough to work on it yourself. :)
