The 4770k is plenty for gaming. If it were me, I would have got the i5 4440 CPU with a GTX 980 or GTX 970. This would have given a better gaming experience, but there other things to consider in a build. If your not going to be doing 4k gaming and stick to 1080p gaming, you should be fine for a bit. I know there are reports out that some newer games might be pushing the vRAM limits over 2 gb's, but I haven't read enough to say for sure.
