CPUs: 2x Intel Xeon E5 2640-v2 (16 cores / 32 threads)
RAM: 8x8gb (64gb total) DDR3-R 2133MT/s ECC
Mobo: Asus Z9PE-D8 WS
GPU: Nvidia GTX 680
SSDs: 2x Crucial M550 120gb (Raid 0)
PSU: Corsair AX860
Case: Corsair 450D (with drive bays "removed")

Watercooling components
2x EK Supreme LTX (cpu blocks)
EK Thermosphere (gpu block, not full cover)
EK DCP 2.2 (pump)
EK CS-PE 120mm (rad, with one Corsair AF120 fan)
EK CS-PE 240mm (rad, with 2x Corsair AF140 fans)
Alphacool HF 13 (tube, 10/13mm)
Also a buttload of fittings

I should probably neaten my cables slightly at some point too.

Approximately 4000-5000$, I presume. Although, if you're looking for something to game with, that really isn't a good one. It's a server build.

I should get a decent gpu

nice gpu scrub

I'm planning on making a low cost gaming machine. any recs on this build so far:

Since you picked a 970 as your GPU, I'd recommend a beefier CPU too, so you won't have to worry about bottlenecks.
Also, get a psu that is more than 500W, since that's the minimum for your picked GPU. Something like 600-700W.
The i5-4460 is a decent cpu, I wouldn't really go lower than quad-core with that graphics card. 
i5 4690k would be the best choice for gaming, although you'd have to get a motherboard that supports overclocking. Then again, in your original build that you linked, you picked a motherboard that cost around 100 and you can get one that supports OC'ing for around that price too.
What exactly is your budget?

TDP for the 970 is only 145w though, the 500w minimum recommendation by Nvidia gives very generous headroom for power hungry components. As the 4460 only uses about 85w, a 500w PSU should be plenty even when including motherboard etc.
