Solitaire.

dont go with a 970 if you dont need special proprietary nvidia features

just go with a r9 380 for less money and more performance

try pcpartpicker that makes it easier to check the parts ;)

you could also safe some bucks on the 950 and get a 850 with higher capacity ( imo you dont feel much difference for the os )

I didn't see a cpu cooler. unless I'm mistaken the unlocked intel cpus don't come with a stock cooler. Maybe I'm wrong or I just didn't see it.

Wheres the cpu cooler?

K series cpus dont come with coolers.

Also your probably dont need that thermal compound, as amost all cpu coolers come with thermal compound in the box.

Should I do a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler or should I do an all-in-one liquid cooler?

The hyper 212 evo is definatly a solid choice ;)
