Long time lurker, first time poster. I am looking for criticisms/suggestions/advice on a potential build I've been mulling over for a bit now. I'm trying to build a decent gaming rig that will handle new release for the next few years (Budget $1,500-$1,700).

Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000

MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

GIGABYTE GV-N770OC-4GD GeForce GTX 770 4GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card

G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 (PC3 14900) Desktop Memory

PC Power & Cooling Silencer Mk III Series 750W Modular Power Supply features 100% Nippon Chemi-Con Capacitors compatible with Intel Haswell Core i3/i5/i7 and AMD Phenom

Antec Nine Hundred Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with Upgraded USB 3.0

SAMSUNG 840 Pro Series MZ-7PD128BW 2.5" 128GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive

Thanks in advance for any insight!!

Newegg/Amazon (local shops only if they had a better price on a certain part).

I guess my only question with that build would be why did you knock down from the Gigabyte 4GB gtx770 to the Evga 2GB gtx770?

I greatly appreciate the input though!

No games out now and upcoming need 4GB in a video card. Is a waste of money if you paid more because it has more GB than the one I choose. Is better to save money than rather to buy stuff you will not need for a couple of years. If you want to then go ahead. It doesn't matter, it's just that is a little expensive and games don't need that much GB.
