Hi im looking to build a desktop under 800 dollars preferably but i can go to 1000 if necessary.

I already own an i7-3770k proc, intel extreme motherboard dz77ga-70k , and a master cooler heat sink. So that leaves 800 on other things.

Items in mind:
-EVGA GeForce GTX 970 4GB SSC Gaming ACX 2.0+ Cooling Graphics Card (04G-P4-3975-KR)
-Corsair Carbide Series Air 240 High Airflow microATX Cube Case (If everything can fit)

I already own a monitor and keyboard. Thank you for your feedback.
 
if you can swing a little under $1000:

Considering it's a full sized atx board, you'll need a mid sized atx case
