320$ for the grafics card
150$ for the ssd.
70$ for a PSU
50$ for a case
80$ for a main board.
40$ for ram
leaves you with -10$ for a CPU. And it is kinda hard to get a i3 with a -10$ budget. Also dual core prozessors are not that good for gaming. Some games like far cry4 dont even support dual core CPU's anymore. quad core is simply standart for gaming.
If you want a stronger grafics card then look for some used computers with good, but older and used grafics cards.

This was my initial build. Anyone think this is a good value or should I change it up?
I want to replace the 960 with a 970. But is my CPU choice and mobo choice good?
