For that price point I don't think you can do much better than what you already are going with. You can upgrade, but the cost increase would be noticeable.

Alternatively you could look at the Bolt base line :      1437262
this is similar to what you have going on with the vanquish and there are a few options for tweaks that are more affordable based on what you want most.

Of course I'm no expert on all the customization options available.

Hi Fox... Welcome to the forums.   

I agree.  Can't do much better for the price.   I would however change the HDD to the Western Digital Black for another $28.  A more reliable and much longer warranty drive over a Seagate for example. 

Not sure your gaming monitor.,  but if its a 1080p, then a gtx 970 will play great.   Nothing wrong with the 980ti, and it might do better in a couple of years, but new cards are always in the pipeline, like the new gtx 1070/1080 and the money saved could go to one of those down the road. 

Looks good and let us know .  Big%20Smile

Drop the OS boost, it does nothing. I agree with going with 970 and drop the hdd and upgrade it or get it yourself later.
