im no expert but i know a few things

the parts i am buying are : https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3NkpjX/by_merchant/
i am buying all of those parts apart from the storage as i already have some and the case as it is expensive. Could anyone suggest a decent case that isnt loads of money, but will fit those parts in, have decent airflow etc.

Also i heard the gtx 970 gets hot so i am buying this as an extra: https://www.scan.co.uk/products/gelid-solutions-icy-vision-vga-cooler-for-ati-amd?utm_source=google%20shopping&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=Cj0KEQjwyN7JBRCZn7LKgb3ki8kBEiQAaLEsqtpoJEQ1Y5r7W7CGxCQyX-XgC3RJocPWmSHY1MI54n8aAutK8P8HAQ

would i have enough space to fit these parts in the case, the case i currently have is too small so i want a new one for around £50. are these parts all good? or will i need to consider other things? thanks.

You chose a very limiting case looking at motherboard size,you want to keep that?

Seems like your build is made around that. To show what is possible fi choosing a less limiting case,

Do you already own the 970? Buying it used? If you're trying to buy it new somewhere don't do that. It's certainly not the best option money wise (if new)

Just want to get a clear pic of what you're doing before I start suggesting stuff

That's one big cooler for such a small otherboard,i would rather look at the H7 which is abit offset so the ramslots aren't as crowded.Especially with the taller ram.
Why the "K" cpu with that H110M motherboard? Since no overclocking on that ...
 
cant do a itx build with ryzen now. close enough :
