Hi,

I am planning to build a Mid range Gaming Rig,

http://pcpartpicker.com/user/viperaliasraj/saved/2u59

My most preferable games are:

GTA 5
and upcoming GTA series :)

I want to play at 1920 x 1080 pixels if possible.

(or even a little bit lesser resolution also)

I dont use multiple monitor now or in near future.

So, my questions are:

1) Will ASUS 7770 2GB Card will be sufficient for this, along with my FX 8350?
2) I can put another card in my MOBO (Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0), if required.

Note: My overall budget is $900.

Awaiting your suggestions.
