By late 2015, nVIDIA's next series will be out. GTX900s will be previous-gen and the GTX760 probably won't even be stocked any more. But yeah in general, i5 + GTX_70 is a much smarter option.

If your main goal is gaming then you don't need the i7, the saved cash should go towards a better GPU, in this case the 970. Actually I'm thinking about getting this combo too :)

The stronger option here would be i5 + 970. If you're looking for multi monitor setups or 4k, you will want to SLI 970s to make it much more playable.
