GTX 970 has 4Gb of VRAM.

Any particular size?

Is that USD, CAD, AUD, etc?

If USA, are you near a Microcenter?

What are you planning on doing with it (just gaming, video editing, etc)?

Planning to overclock or not?

do you need an os?
or any accessories? (monitor, keyboard, mouse, controller, wifi nic, speakers)
do you have any components you can reuse? (ram, drives, case, psu ect..)

microcenter has 6700k /w z170 combos starting around $450+tax

if you do lots of video editing or streaming the i7 and 16g of ram will help, but cost around $150 more than i5 and 8g of ram

the 3.5g+.5g ram on the gtx 970 is a non issue
at 1080p is rarely runs over 3.5g adn the .5g is still on the gpu and is alot faster than any other ram in the pc
at over 1080p you will want a faster gpu anyway


if you get the cpu/mobo from microcenter this will be right aroudn $1000usd

Here you have best 3 PC Builds made by myself.
http://mycomputer.tips/pcbuilds.php
Took me 4h to make these builds and find parts and research about them + my PC Pic is on my steam profila

i would buy the Midrange one..
The fact you still think the 970 has 3.5 GB of VRAM shows you are just dumb.

If you want to be spoon fed a build go to www.reddit.com/r/buildapcforme

at 1080p 60 fps it should be able to max out or near max out almost any game the 980 is not needed for 1080p gaming
