What can you say about my build?
I'm planning to use this for Gaming (Dota 2, NBA 2k15 or will try to play bf4) and some light photo/video editing and rendering. (PS6, Autocad, 3ds Max)
Any suggestions on how to save a little on the price?

Would go with this build. If you want to spend a little less money on the gpu then grab a 280x. You'll be able to max out bf4 with the 970 or the 280x.

Also you should get 2 sticks of RAM rather than 1

the reason why i choose the 1 stick ram is for future upgrade. i want to make it 8gb.

i guess the gtx 970 is much cheaper than the 280x.

gtx 970 = 349.99
280x = 367.98

Stick with 970 and enjoy the excellent performance. I picked you point of future upgrade and that is why did not change the RAM.
