What is your total budget for everything? To get the full potential out of the 970/390 you will need a decent CPU, so a 6300 and 970/390 wouldn't be utilising the card to its full potential.

CoolMax :suicide:
The PSU would definitely need an upgrade, the case almost definitely is poorly built, to be honest you would want a whole new build and save the HDD and possibly RAM. Would you have a larger budget for a new build?
