Okie so I have a really tough question to ask... well in my very own opinion it is tough to even come up with an answer rather! I am currently building my very first gaming computer I already have the case, processor, mother board, and power supply These are the components as fallowed

PSU: 1000W Limited Black Edition Full-Modular

Processor: i7 4770

Case: Switch 810

Mother Board: Asus MXIMUS VI Hero

So, all I am needing is a Hard Drive, sticks of RAM, Operating System, and of course a Video Card. ... the Hard Drive I can just easily get without much thinking along with the Operating System. (just have to decide if I want Windows 7 or 8 that I have not decided yet may get 8 for shits and giggles if I don't like 8 I can just get 7 that is no biggie for me what so ever. Far as the RAM goes, well I am not yet sure as to which I am setting my heart onto so I suppose you guys can help me out with a compatible set for my "MB" 8-16 (16 a bit a little better cause I also do a bit of video editing and Photoshop so that will help me out a lot) BUT now the biggest deciding factor is ....... the video card I really have my heart set on the EVGA GTX 780 Video card BUT it is sooooo expensive but I do not mind waiting for saving up the cash for the bad boy or is there any other cards that are from Navida that can benefit me just as well (uhem also failed to mention that I do plan on streaming the games that I play, and they are as fallowed SC2, League, boarderlands 2, Company heros 2, Guild Wars, and Metro 2033)

if you guys can help me out I would great appreciate it!
 
Honeslt, the 780 has just recently undergone a price cut, so don't expect it to become any cheaper until the newer cards are released later this year (around end of summer to early winter)
The 780 plays all of those games you have mentioned absolutely maxed out very smoothly. I would however, suggest the msi twin frozr or the asus direct cu ii variant, as i have read a lot of people getting coil whine from the evga variants.

so Something like this would be better than the EVGA variant? http://us.ncix.com/products/?sku=93417&vpn=MARS760-4GD5&manufacture=ASUS&promoid=1347
and I live in the US..

I don't want AMD GPU, prefer Navida not cause I am a fanboy as many would state it just my preference on the matter :)
