Looks good. Power supply is overkill. Go for Seasonic M12 II Evo 520W at RM279 (modular). Best you can get at this price range.
Medium is fine with this

Core i5-4460 - RM619
Asrock H81M-VG4 motherboard - RM159
Kingston 4GB DDR3-1600 x1 - RM134
Sapphire R7 265 2GB DDR5 - RM529
WD Blue 1TB hard disk - RM174
DVD writer of your choice - RM59
Corsair VS 550W power supply - RM179
Thermaltake V3 Black or Aerocool VS-3 case - RM129

RM1982 total (Viewnet prices)

Sifus, any thoughts of a B85 mobo with the Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3?

Not gonna OC, and just for gaming.

Might upgrade the whole rig in 5-6 years, if that plays a factor

No issue. Unless you wanna go overclock setup. In 5-6 years, definitely you will need to change the motherboard for new CPU anyway.

Tq for the fast reply. I have some questions to ask you :

If I wanted to change to i5 or i7 in the future should I go for the Z97 mobo instead?
I am most probably will build a new pc after June 2015. Is it better to wait for Skylake since it might be out later this year?

It's big difference for the cooling performance.

Gainward has 1 year less warranty. The chip is still GTX970. Not much difference on the performance
