Looks good. I'm guessing it's a workstation from the low end graphics card. Will you been running the hard drives in raid at all?

Take it you're not that into gaming from the 960. The Power Supply is a bit expensive.

And unnecessary.

This will be mostly a workstation PC. And the drives will be running in raid. I don't do any gaming which requires an amazing gpu.

Here, better CPU for rendering, less overkill yet still high-quality PSU.etc

Do you need a 970? And would you be open to an AMD card?
