Suggested Bundle + HDD

I'm looking to upgrade the guts of my PC but still stick with my current corsair PSU, Case and GFX Card, therefore just looking to replace CPU/Mobo/RAM/SSD.

Whilst I don't have a budget in mind, I'm looking at the DEFCON 2s - Gigabyte GA-Z170X Sniper Bundle with 960 EVO Polaris 250GB M.2 2280 PCI-e 3.0 x4 NVMe Solid State Drive

Currently have a Crucial M4 SSD which is on its way out :|

Can anyone see anything immediately wrong with the above paired equipment? Or any suggestions for something slightly better for similar money?

PC is used mainly for work but some light gaming...

Buy that rightaway instead of the more expensive bundle with an i5 and 8GB RAM and smaller cooler. Less than 10 left. Even if the 240mm cooler won't fit in your case it's still worth it price-wise for the rest of the stuff.

Good spot!
On that page it says all options in stock, but adding the item to basket with any Memory option says its out of stock in the basket.... any thoughts why?

It's been bugged like that since it was listed. You can buy it anyway (until they run out and it will no longer be an option to add to basket or purchase).
