What will I need to upgrade to be able to play bf4 on ultra and not lag a bunch?

MoBo - Pegetron Formosa Z75
Processor - Intel Core i7-3770 Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W
RAM - 8GB 1600mhz
GPU - Evga gtx 560 SC
PSU - Corsair 650watt bronze cert.

Thinking of getting a GTX 770 but not sure if a 2gb or 4gb.

The only thing that needs to be upgraded here, and that is the 560. Do you have a budget here, as that is the limiting factor in almost any rig.

Upgrade that GTX 560 to at least a GTX 760 and you'll be good bud.

A 760 or 770+, or a 7950/7970 is what you are looking at here. Get either one of those, and you will be set. I lean to the 770 here.

For one monitor 2 Gigs should be plenty, but if you want it to last a bit longer or need more monitors the 4 gig is more useful. Of the specific cards, its hard to beat the ACX/Classified models from EVGA, and you cant beat EVGA's customer service.

Well I have 2 monitors hooked up but only game on one. My other one is just my side monitor for movies and music. So with that said should i go with the 2gb or 4gb? Going to post some links to newegg on what im looking at.

For the 20 bucks difference it is worth it to get the 4 gigs in either case.

Agree for only $20 bucks more go for the four gig. While it is really not needed at that price why not.

Well everytime I read professional reviews on those types of cases I always hear "not good ",type things.Raidmax is not known for making quality products though in fairness the company has come a long way and is improving.
