Hey, im building my own PC, and im left with a graphics card, what one should I get? My processor is an AMD A10 quad core 3.8 GHZ with 8GB RAM.

I want to go for the Nvidia 760, although ive heard my pc may be bottle-necked. Any ideas? Im gonna be playing games such as dayZ and Minecraft, so will this be fine or should I go for a slightly lower GPU?
 
Did you already buy the CPU/motherboard? I ask this because the A10 has a built in gpu (although much lower performance than the 760) If you plan to buy a dedicated GPU like the GTX 760 you should go with an FX chip or an intel (can get a better performing CPU for the same price or cheaper this way), anything other than one of the A series amd CPUs.

Cheers, How much frames should i be getting in games like minecraft and dayz on full settings, if you know of course?

 
I do not have either of those games but as Preecher said Minecraft is CPU intense, your CPU will still provide playable frames so you shouldn't have an issue there... and if Dayz is like most other shooters its going to be GPU intensive and the GTX 760 should get you good frame rates even on max settings @1080p.
