Solution
dam, if you went with red gpu you could get a better performing gpu with 8gb vram 390 at a cheaper price than the slightly slower 4gb gtx 970.
Something similar to this is what I would do, assuming the 800$ is just for the hardware:

You can swap the case for whatever you want but I think the Source 220 is a great case with lots of features for the price. Get a copy of Windows 10 (or whatever OS you want) from reddit (r/microsoftsoftwareswap). I got my copy of Windows 10 Pro for $45 and it's legit. Just pick a reputable seller and they will give you the activation code. All you need to do is download the ISO of whatever OS you get from the Microsoft website and put it onto a USB drive and boot from it.
