That PSU is overkill. The GTX 780 only has a 250W TDP and the rest of the system will use ~100W. You'd be fine with a 600W or maybe even lower PSU. This PSU is excellent: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151095

Anandtech recommends a 550W PSU for the 780: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6973/nvidia-geforce-gtx-780-review. The PSU linked above is a very well rated PSU from an awesome brand, and especially without the "K" 4670, you will be good!

Hope I could help!

And to answer your direct question, yes, the 4670 should not bottleneck for MOST games. You may want to spend the extra little bit to get a 4670K to overclock along with a better CPU cooler.

Check your games to see their CPU usage, though. The i5-4670 may be more than enough.
