Change PSU to something from Tier 1 to 2 on this list: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/406160-psu-ranking-and-tiers/ because the one in your list should be avoided. Also, basically everyone will say R9 390, including me, due to it's slightly superior performance and the fact that it has double the VRAM.

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/DpQVJx Should I get the Radeon R9 390 or the GTX 970 with this build. Would the Radeon R9 390 work well with an Intel processor? 

Really I think you should spend more on your GPU for gaming.
