So here's my (potential) budget rig, what improvements can y'all suggest?

GPU: gtx 960 4gb factory oc (400w is the recommended psu wattage) (brand new)
CPU: I5 4670k 3.4ghz 4-core (TDP 84w) (used)
Mobo: ASUS H81M-PLUS (used)
PSU: EVGA 700b 700w

so yeah, should I go ahead with it? should I get a different motherboard or anything? Keep in mind that this the cheapest I accumulated, I've decided to stick with that 960 I found, but if you got anything better roughly the same price (£150 +vat, brand new on ebuyer). I've already got case (recently a bought brand new Bitfenix Nova +window) and peripherals from my last, potato.

My budget is roughly <£370

all you can do is wait for the newer amd 400 line see where the prices fall. the older 300 line uses a lot of power. the 960 is better for a low power rig. (170w) max.

This is just a temporary solution, as of now I need a better set up than what I have, in about a year I'll be able to successfully replace all of it. SO for now, this is the cheapest and somewhat most efficient I managed to cook up.
