This will be the first time I build a computer, and I finally put together a list of parts with what I've learned from lurking on forums and watching Youtube videos. anyways, I was hoping so could take a look and share any opinions on it? Something i should change or dont need? Don't really want to spend any more than $700.

What country are you from ?
If the nzxt case isn't very important for you, there are cheaper, still viable alternatives, which would allow some more money to go towards hardware.
If the case has good airflow (which it has, in this case) there's no reason to go with a blower type cooler, because it will have to work harder too keep the temps low. Go with a dual fan design. You might also want to take a look at some R9 280's.
As for the motherboard, the only compelling reason to go with the Asrock 970 Extreme3 instead of the Gigabyte UD3P is the current promo. If you can squeeze an extra $15 - $50, it would be nice.
The intel build is the most expensive one just under $760.
