I would like to upgrade my ibuypower series 503 computer for better gaming. It has a 3.5G i7-3770, quad core hyperthreaded. Gigabyte B75M-D3H motherboard. 22" LG monitor 1920x1080. Alpha 700W power supply. 1TB Hard drive. 16332 MB installed memory in 4 chips. windows 7 64bit. not sure what else you would need to know. Thanks for any advice. Tower has a bunch of fans.

Thanks for the reply. why the 770, because of my price point? would a slightly better and more expensive card be limited by my setup? I do think the gtx 770 sounds like a great choice but I also know very little. Also I noticed quite a few gtx 770 cards, some 2gb some 4gb, and a bunch of different brands with cards looking nothing like the NVidia website. how do I know which one would pair well with my system?

Yeah they will have different cooler depending on who makes the board.

I like the ASUS DCUII coolers personally, they are very quiet and great cooling.

Yeah the 770 was suggested because of the budget.

A 780 or 780 would be better if you can afford it, its worth checking out your PSU too, as I haven't heard about that brand.
