Yes, but you can get a much more powerful GPU for only slightly more: http://www.vuugo.com/computer-hardware/computer-parts/video-cards/sapphire-video-card-11199-20-20G.html?tracking=5108053939762#container
The 7870 XT is drastically better than the Ghz. Edition, and costs only $20 more.
You could make up most of the difference by dropping your case to a Corsair 200R: http://ca.pcpartpicker.com/part/corsair-case-200r
