Hi. I got this build going on but I'm not sure if they'll fit in the mini tower I chose. I built a pc before but that was before the DDR3 days so I'm kinda rusty already and need some help.
Here are the specs:
Mobo: ASUS Z97 Maximus VII Gene
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K OR Intel Core i5-4690K
RAM: G Skill RipjawsX 8GB (planning to go 16GB in the future)
GPU: MSI GTX 970 Gaming (planning to go Dual-SLI in the future)
SSD: Intel Series 530 120GB
HDD: WD Caviar Green 1TB
Network Adapter: TPLink TL-WDN4800 N900 PCI
PSU: (Tentative) Corsair AX760i 80PLUS Platinum
Chassis: Bitfenix Prodigy M (the black one for more ventilation)
Chassis Fans: Corsair AF120 Performance (for all vacant fan mounts)
CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i Hydro Series (to be installed at the top)
I would also like to ask if this build will still be worth getting in Q2-Q3 2015 since I will only get the money by then. I am not sure about the availability of Broadwell boards in my country, and I'm sure as hell that they will be priced around 1.5 - 2x the original when they get here.
I plan to bring this desktop to LAN parties, which explains the mATX form factor. I don't mind changing the parts as long as they remain mITX or mATX because I need this build to be portable. I plan to do editing with this PC (Blender, for example), which explains the i7 and the 16GB RAM. Alongside editing is gaming, probably on a single 1440p setup (dual-triple 1440p setup when I go SLI; no plan to go quad-display).
I plan to overclock the 4790k and the 970 as I see fit, which may introduce temperature problems I might need some help with as well.
If you would like to suggest other hardware options, please refer to the websites below which offer locally available hardware. Getting anything from other countries is terribly difficult to deal with in my country (and is very prone to corruption in the customs).

Thank you!
EDITS:
Changed the mobo.
I replaced the Corsair Vengeance LP 8GB Single RAM into G Skill RipjawsX 8GB 2133.
I added a network adapter. Will this still fit inside the chassis?
