Ok I'm in process of looking to purchase a new pc. Mostly I us it to browser the web email and play games like solotaire. I've spent some time at the local stores talking to sales people for reccomendations. And so far what they reccomend for me is the following.
4770k cpu
gtx 770 graphics card
32 gig ram
2 samsung 840 pro ssds.
nh-d14 cpu cooler
800 watt pcu
storm trooper cpu case.
and a asus extreme something motherboard.
I just want to verify that the above system will meett my requirements or do I need to upgrade some things. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Agree with the rest.The specs you were quoted are high end. If your doing casual gaming,look into AMD's APU line.
From what you've described as your needs,the APU line will be fantastic.Actually,you wouldn't even need a standalone graphics card at all

EDIT: If you told the sales staff of the needs that you mentioned to us and they still gave you that spec sheet,avoid that store.They're ripping you off.
