i admit the "1833 instead of 1866" mistake was dumb lol but like how do you not know what it means when it's right there in the title and then in the specs under "speed"
last month I went from knowing next to nothing to building my own pc with very little help from others; a little online research goes a long way, and you should definitely do some if you are going to be putting all of the parts together yourself
also, here is a no-nonsense, at-your-level-of-understanding reason as to why you should choose an r9 380 over the gtx(both of which are compatible with your setup) http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2687322/gtx-960-380.html#16079437
in case you couldn't tell it's the reply with the green around it labeled "best solution"

neutron got here
way forgetin bigger than i thought it would be but its okay i have room
(soda can for size)
the fans were advertised as dual 120s in the front, even in the manual it said they were 120s, but the fans themselves say they are 140s, and they measure 140mm.
no idea why they would lie about that, but hey, more fan for me.
the stock fans are not PWM, and arent exactly loud but they aren't quiet either
like hotel air conditioning noise level
i will save up another 30 dollars and buy some corsair red led 140s, i had great successes with my white led 140mm from them
i only have a 430w EVGA right now, and its not exactly meant to handle a 970, so the wiring consists of adapters and nasty colors
i did the best i could, it would look much better without that molex to 6 pin in the middle of it all
no real complaints besides the noise level unless i just wanna nit-pick at every little thing i didnt care for

When you upgrade your psu, save yourself the trouble and buy a modular one so you can buy sleeved cables.
