Hey guys, I purchased my PC some time ago and it serves me well when playing even BF3, Dayz, etc. (20-40fps)

However, I really need to upgrade for BF4. (Want to aim for 60fps)

I want to get the 'GIGABYTE GV-N770OC-4GD GeForce GTX 770 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready WindForce 3X 450W Video Card"

Now, I know I need a good cpu, power supply, but I just dont have the money right now. Is there any point of upgrading my card on my current rig?

Currently have a GTS450 (I will remove it once I upgrade)

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Processor
16GB of Ram
A 1920x1080, 60Hz Monitor
(will be upgrading to 140Hz soon)

MOBO:
ASUSTeK Computer INC.
MODEL: M4A77TD

Power Supply:
Not exactly sure, looked inside and from what I could read it said max power 700W.


With time, I will probably want to upgrade my mobo to one of those z87 types and get an Intel i7/i5, and a beast 1200W Power Supply. Right now, I can't drop $2k!

What do you guys think?

Thanks so much!

If you want to upgrade your monitor to a 140Hz one, a GTX 770 won't cut it, to make use of such a monitor you'll need to have a constant FPS higher than 60 otherwise you will see no difference.
A 1200 Watt PSU is totally unnecessary for your system, even with 770's in 2-way SLI ~800 Watt will be plenty.

Does the power supply have a label on it?
