HELP new comp build

Mobo - ASUS MAXIMUS VII HERO is good, but do you really need to spend that much on motherboard? Personally would get mid range mobo and get CPU heatsink

Case - consider Fractal Design Define R4. H440 don't have external bay, although it may not be necessary nowadays.

PSU - i assume you are going to SLi some point in future?
 
Personaaly, I love the H440, at this point, you dont need a dvd drive. Just use an external one or make a windows boot drive\

Also, you may not want 16 gig of ram over 8 gigs, unless you do a lot of video rendering or the like. And, maybe go for the msi version of the gtx 970, better cooling and overclock potential
