Hello there,
I am buying a new PC and i am thinking about the following build currently:

INTEL Core i5-4690 3.50GHz 1150 BOX
GIGABYTE GA-H97M-D3H
HyperX 8GB FURY DDR3 1600MHz CL10 KIT HX316C10FK2/8
GIGABYTE GV-N970G1 GAMING-4GD GTX970 4GB GDDR5 OC PCIE
SAMSUNG 250GB 850 EVO SATA3 2,5" MZ-75E250B/EU
WD Blue 1TB 7200rpm 64MB SATA3 WD10EZEX
FSP Raider 550

And i am definitely not sure about the housing.
Thinking about Antec GX500 but i dont know if it is enough space in there (the graphic card is a big monster ) and i dont really like the ventillation on the top side ( isn't it causing trouble letting some dust into or something )

Thank you for your answers
And looking forward to hear opinions on the rest of the parts too.

If you mount fans on said ventilation it will exhaust and remove said dust concern.

I have some concerns about the quality of the power supply. Most of us would prefer to see no less than tier III, preferably II or higher. Might want to consider raising the quality on that. No sense in buying expensive gear and hooking up a POS PSU to it..
 
Your PSU is not a part destroyer or anything but for the $80 price of that unit I would much more suggest an XFX, Seasonic or EVGA (G2/B2) unit over the FSP.

Fractial Design Define MIDI ARC 2 is a very nice case with room for deep GPUs. The higher end corsair cases would also be good (300r or better). The higher end NZXT are also very nice.
