That 970 won't run games on full graphics at 60FPS stable, and that SSD isn't very good, replacing it with a decent Samsung one would be much better.

I'm going to agree here. The 970 is a decent card that can pull its own weight, but it is by no means a powerhouse. Also, the Samsung is one of the leaders in SSD tech, if not, THE leader. You'll get the most performance for your money by switching to one.

Oh I didn't notice that Computing section.

I'll see if I can somehow move the thread, I don't think I have the necessary privileges though.

EDIT:
Nope, can't move the thread.
