Yes, your GPU is the best part of your build, but there's still a lot better. I just mentioned that if you were to be playing heavy gaming in the future, you'd be forced to get a better GPU at that time. There are coming a lot of games that require a lot more juice from GPU's. So in about 1-2 years you could start looking at upgrading.

Congratz on your new PC!
It's a decent build, you're definitely able to play all modern games, but not on max settings though.
If you plan on playing games that require more juice from GPU, (BF4, Watch Dogs, and future games on highest settings) then a newer GPU would be good. Though, they require a better CPU as well. A new GPU at some point would be a huge improvement for your system, and afterwards a better CPU.

Thank you! Im all very new at gaming PC's and it will play pretty much anything on moderate settings i can play Day Z in Urban areas at around 45 FPS on high settings which is amazing too me :) and thank you for the suggestions if im honest in thought my GPU was the best part about it but im obviously mistaken as looking at GPU's is mind boggling to someone who hasn't done alot of computer gaming
