Hi there, and welcome to Tom's.

First off. Z87 and 3570K CPU do not go together. :)

Second. State your budget and we can help you get a complete build.

850Watt PSU is way overkill, you need no more that 600W for pretty much any single GPU out there.

Also I would STRONGLY suggest you spend more on the graphics card, the HD7770 is a good card for lower resolution gaming, its not meant for 1920*1080 HD resolution.

DO you already have a monitor?
Do you need windows?
