This is my current specs.
Intel G630 2.7Ghz
Asus P8H61 - MLX
Ram ( 4x1gb ) 1333mhz
seasonic 520 watts
nzxt phantom 410
sapphire vapor x hd 7770
1080p gaming

Right now I am playing Batman Origins, and I notice some fps drop even not in max settings, I want to max the settings of every game in 1080p monitor with getting a decent fps.

No, but your power supply will. Try looking at corsair's supply's.

it will, you need a decent quad core CPU to max out games nowaday's.

@Sczw, seasonic is one of the best PSu manufacture's out there. and even corsair uss'es seasonic as their OEM so he wont need to upgrade his PSU. plus 520W is enough to run both of those GPU's unless he plans to SLI.

Supposedly the 770 and 780 require 42amps and 600W of power. They dont actually pull quite that much power, so your PSU probably could handle it. Perhaps consider a R9 280X, Less of a PSU requirement and almost as fast as the 770.

Having a dual core, most likely will hinder the performance a bit, so getting an upgrade for the CPU might be good. However you will still get a huge performance boost even if the CPU is bottlenecking a little.

Yes it will bottleneck quite a bit.I do not recommend it.

gtx 770 using more power?

GTX 770 and R9-280X has the pretty much the same power consumption. 20W wont make a big difference, bothway's your 520W is plenty, as it probably has a 6 pin and a 6+2pin power connector. but your CPU is gonna be a mojaro bottleneck. pretty much everyone said that.

Yeah the actual powerdraw of the cards varies, but NVidia recommendation is that 42 amps and 600w, but like listed above, you should still be fine.
And yes, a proper quad core CPU would help with performance.

Basically i5 3330, i5 3350p or better would help with that. Those are currently in the $170 range, which is roughly the difference between GTX770 and GTX780.
So if you have the money to buy a GTX780, buying a new i5 CPU and the GTX770 will provide better results overall.
