so i was going to peace together a new i7 machine. Mainly for gaming. I was going to mainly use it for rome 2. There are several posts in the rome 2 forums stating the new dedicated graphics work just fine on the new i7 machines. That buying say a new gtx770 for $500 is a waste of money. Anyone want to set me straight here?

GTX 770 for $500. USD? Thats seems to much, they should be sold for about $300. Also an I7 is unnecessary for gaming, they only help for productivity. So yes that GPU will work, but a GTX 760 or R9 280 may be a better option since they will max that game easy.
