	You can change the chassis to your preference. This should be the best system for your needs for the budget. BTW, with the special offer, if you add $35 of options to this, it'll only cost you $10 more...if you need an ODD, add one; or upgrade the SSD to the 250GB model for more space and performance.

	Looks brilliant, is there a big difference in performance between the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB and the 980?

	The 980 have maybe a 10% performance advantage over the 970, but costs a bit more. Up to you whether it is worth it or not. Dual 970's in SLI would be a better deal, still. Search for benchmarks of the games you want to check online and compare how 970's and 980's perform.
