I'm just planning to build my own computer but I'm not sure what to buy if 1gb or 2 gb video card. This is the specs of the system unit I want to build:

Processor: Intel Pentium G3460 3.50ghz dual-core processor lga 1150
Motherboard: Asus B85M-G lga 1150
RAM: 8gb DDR3 (if this is able to handle 2gb video card or i have to increase it)
Power Supply: Corsair 700w (if this is not sufficent for 2gb video card i will replace it)

That's all I want to know i hope you'll answer guys. ^^

That is a pretty low end pc build if you wish to game on it, i'd recommend at least an i5 and a better motherboard everything else is fine. Although 700w is a bit overkill unless you want to have a really beefy graphics card as corsair are reliable. Perhaps you'll do fine with a 500 or 650w psu 80+ certified of course.

thanks for fast reply ^^ well i also willing to spend money on i5 processor but do you think it can run a 2gb video card such as AMD Radeon HD 7800 series or 7700 series or I have to increase the 8gb ram also ?

7870 may be a good match for you, 8 gb ram is still the minimum for overall good system performance. So you'll be fine, and as it's a pc you can drop in another stick of ram whenever you feel it needs the extra memory.
