i was wondering, what do you guys think about Sapphire Radeon TOXIC R9 280X VS Gigabyte GTX 770 GDDR5-4GB

Why 4770k? Are you doing production work in your PC? There is no need for a i7 for gaming. Also why do you want liquid cooling? I really think that this build deserves a GTX 780

Get an i5-4670k instead of the i7 and use the difference to upgrade to a gtx780/r9 290x

_guillem :

The reason i went for i7 is because occasionally i edit videos and stream. but if its overkill i could go with i5
