First thing I'll suggest is getting rid of the "Standard" PSU, an on-line search for "CyberPowerPC standard PSU" may be enlightening (probably not inspiring though). The CoolerMaster V550 and XFX TS550 are good options there
Second, trade the Core i7-4790k for an i5-4690k or 4670k since the additional cores offered by hyper-threading don't show any real advantage for gaming. While you can game with it and it won't hurt to have it (can even help with bragging rights) there isn't a whole lot of benefit there.
The rest of it looks to be very nice for gaming and I'd expect very high performance from it

C12Friedman :

Would 500 Watts be enough power for this setup I also changed the graphics card to a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB GDDR5 PCIe 3.0 x16 and switched to an i5-4690k

C12Friedman · Jun 16, 2015

Yeah, 500W is enough for that system with any single GPU. I'd say you're set.
