Processor: Intel Core i5 4690K
Motherboard: Asus Z97-A
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB
Graphics Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 770 Superclocked ACX 2GB
Power Supply: Corsair HX750
Case: Phanteks Enthoo Pro

The programs I will be running simultaneously are Battlefield 4, Google Chrome, Skype, and Bitdefender Total Security. Will I still achieve more than 60+ FPS in Battlefield 4 if I run all these programs at the same time with this build?

Thanks!

I wouldn't if you can afford it now, just get the 770, in 2 years time you still won't have to upgrade whereas people with older gpu's might, and the gpu is pretty important so if you can go for the best, why not? It'll be more ' future proof '

Yes you should be able to I have almost the exact same parts(But I have 4690 not unlocked) and its pretty powerful and should easily be able to do that! Are you planning on overclocking? Because if you aren't you could get a different MB and a non unlocked processer and save 70ish dollars. Another thing is that you don't really need a full tower case for the build a mid tower will be enough

Do this. But if you do plan on overclocking, keep the case. You will have better airflow. Also seeing that I can max out Battlefield 4 with a GTX 560 and an FX-6300 I think you will have plenty of power.

Yes, I will be overclocking with a Noctua NH-D14. I chose this case because it is a full-tower case, has good airflow, looks stunning, and is only $99. A far better deal than the Fractal Design Define R4 and the NZXT H440, in my opinion. Good reviews from HardwareCanucks and LinusTechTips as well. I'm very glad I discovered this case!

What the? You could max BF4 with an outdated GPU and a weaker CPU? Do you think I should tone my build down a bit?
