Upgrade the memory to 2X4GB 1600Mhz or higher with CL9 or lower, 4GB won't cut it in all games.

Upgrade the PSU to 500W or higher from Antec/ EVGA/ SeaSonic/ XFX, they're better quality, and moreover, VS is not good quality.

Upgrade the GPU to EVGA/ MSI/ Asus/ GigaByte, Zotac ones are not good at OCing, very noisy and run hotter too.

You'll be good to go for Ultra on HD (720p or 1366X768) for atleast 2 years

You need 8 GB (2x4 GB) of RAM.

Corsair VS Series are crap, Get this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-power-supply-110b20750vr. Also I would suggest getting 8GB of RAM, games are going to be running slow with 4GB.
Everything else looks good.

There is nothing wrong, but i feel you should get a z97/z87 chipset motherboard and atleast 8gb of RAM.
Corsair VS650 is not that great power supply, i suggest you to get a Seasonic s12g-650 power supply (It is 80+ gold certified and at a good price).

Go for a GTX 760 and the money you save on the GTX 770 you can buy an extra 4 gb ram with.
