Additional Comments:
Down the line I may be swapping out the motherboard and the CPU (if AM3+ is discontinued) so that I can add another GTX 970 for SLI, hence the 650w gold rated PSU and the 2400mhz RAM.

Any last minute tips are welcome however I will be ordering this in the next 20 hours.

Many Thanks,

George

Yes, all is compatible.

Yes, all is compatible.

And nothing I need to consider or change?

Edit: Just noticed my motherboard does not allow RAM to go over 2000mhz so there is that :/

The only changes would be those based on one's personal preferences and/or budget.

I would change the motherboard from the GA-970A-DS3P to the GA-970A-UD3P for the better 8+2 phase CPU VRM which is more appropriate if you want to overclock the CPU. The GA-970A-DS3P has a weaker 4+1 phase CPU VRM.
