Yesterday I finally got my components and put them together into a functioning computer:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage: Samsung 840 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Case: Cooler Master HAF XM (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: Corsair Builder 750W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Optical Drive: Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer

What graphics card is the best to go with this setup. Do not worry about pricing I just would like to know in your honest opinion what card you would get and why. Thank you all in advance! I have been working hard to get this computer together and all help is appreciated!

Well that depends entirely on what you intend to do with it and what kind of resolution you use, how many monitors etc. I would say GTX780 if money doesn't play a role because that beast will do anything, and your setup is more than capable of handling such a card. But again, what do you intend to do with it and what resolution do you use? Eyefinity?

I plan on using the graphics for mostly gaming and some photo and video editing but primarily games. and so far only one monitor at 1080p soon to be two at that resolution, but I would only game with a triple monitor or single monitor setup because I do not like the idea of my "center" of my screen being between two monitors.

Protest to your heart's content but I see posters all the time right here with the same problems I had as recently as a couple of years ago when I made the mistake of giving them another chance. Remember, just because you don't have a problem doesn't mean others don't.

Well if you look at it that way, nVidia has alot of problems too, search for it. But that's because you only hear from people with problems. If it works perfectly people almost never say anything about it.

As I said in my original post, Nvidia (and everybody else) has bugs occasionally. Nvidia fixes theirs immediately.

W.e you say bud. All i see is 2500+ posts and only 37 correct answers, so why would i discuss anything with you?

Anyway, here goes, Nvidia drivers aren't as "perfect" as you nvidia fanboys think. They are roughly the same as AMD and AMD updates bugs sometimes even faster than nVidia, sometimes nVidia is the faster one w.e. But the point is, drivers are good enough on both parties nowadays so price / performance is more important. Drivers are no issue anymore ATM. Crossfire / SLI is a different story, but we aren't talking about that here.
