If its for gaming, No.

Way too much CPY/ motherboard/ PSU and no where near enough GPU

Get an fx-6300 and a $70 motherboard. Get a 500w PSU.

Used saved money for a better GPU (7870/gtx660). It will be much better for gaming.

The 7770 will only game at medium settings.

thanks for you feedback, can you suggest a mobo?

What is your budget? I will just make you a whole build.

 

[Laeonix]

around $900 before taxes... if its a little over that would be fine. Thanks

What will be the main use of this system?

 

[Laeonix]

It will be used for gaming and just everyday use, nothing too intense with that budget.

For gaming you would probably want atleast a 7800 series card like a 7850 or 7870.
