The 980 is quite a bit more expensive than the 970. If you have just a 1080P display I'd recommend the 970.

I'd go with a 240+ GB SSD. With only 120GB you will always be playing with programs and all moving them on and off the SSD.

The RAM is way, way overkill. Just get a 1600 speed one. The faster RAM only helps with really high framerates above 100FPS. And you probably cannot overclock it that fast anyways. Just a waste of money.

Could you recommend me an SSD of that size for the money? How do I differentiate where I want games and stuff to download? I have a HDD and SSD
