Hi all, I have the unenviable task of specing a second hand build that will cover 1080p gaming on a living room tv. Preferably at the highest possible graphical settings

For circa £500 would the best bang for buck be along the lines of i5/i7 with cheap mobo and cooler, 550/650w PSU, 8gb/16gb ram, 128ssd, 1/2tb hdd and GTX970/980. All obviously dependent on price etc. although I am gravitating towards a good price on the 980 and working around that

No need of windows, kb or mouse as I can provide these, however what sort of spec would you recommend, or have I hit the nail on the head?
 
I've just built an SFF pc for my living room with Haswell i5, 16gb ram, GTX 970, ssd for Windows and mechanical drive for steam. I had a Windows license already. It cost me about £450, with a good deal on the 970, which I got for £100 on the MM. It gets 80fps on the Shadow of Mordor benchmark with mostly top quality settings at 1080p.
