Here's how I see your configuration, based of the processor. GTX 970 wouldn't have been "performance-friendly", so I've changed it with a AORUS Radeon RX 580.
I will not spend more money in another graphic card, I know the 970 is very weak for this setup, but games this days spend more processor than graphic card, so I´ll not have many problems, even less problems with the overclocked processor and the liquid refrigeration. Also I´ll save money for the next 4 years (the years that the graphic card will be useful) for a new one.

that processor only does dual channel, not quad
Oh, and the RAM doesn´t have anything to do with channels, THAT´S THE MOTHER. Oh god...

Hmm. Well ignore the AORUS Radeon and put yout GTX 970 (is not available in the site where I made the configuration, that's why)

Dude, seriously, there´s not only one configuration, combinations in hardware are limitless. A Radeon would be even worse with that setup, a consume of a 1080 with the potence of a fucking 1060. Tell me the page of the setup, please...

I know that don't worry haha. It is just based on YOUR setup.

Go check there if you want : https://www.topachat.com/pages/configomatic.php

For the proc, type directly when clicking "i7-8700k" because they do not have it in stock.

Yeah, he linked a page with a config which can be useful or not, I said before: There´s not only one config, pieces can change and the PC as well.
Right, but he gave reasons as to why certain parts might not be the best idea. If I were you I'd take the criticism and ask what he means, rather than overspend or end up with incompatible parts
