I'm currently upgrading my PC with a new power supply (750w), graphics card (GTX 770) and case (NZXT Phantom 410).The motherboard at the moment is the Dell Studio XPS 8100 Desktop Motherboard G3HR7 T568R, PCI-e x16. Would this be able to run the GTX 770 efficiently, or is it worth upgrading?

At the moment its the stock Dell so i7-860, 8GB Ram and GeForce GTS 240.

It should run fine, the biggest problem is going to be hooking up the motherboard to the case. Dell motherboard use a proprietary plug for the power switch/front light/hd light, etc that doesn't conform to the standard pins normal cases use.

You can get around this by take then pins out of the motherboard connectors and by trial and error, figure out what pins do what.
