Hi,

I want to build a PC with these specs for gaming +other typical user stuff and I want to know if there is any hardware that in this build that shall be replaced because it is not compatible with other hardwares or because I better invest my money on something more cost/effective (like having a better graphic card instead of a better CPU). Please note that I want to play on full HD 40-47 LED TV.

Motherboard: Asus crosshairV Formula-Z amd 990fx
CPU: AMD fx-8320 Vishera
GPU: Asus GTX 770-dc20c-4GB DDR5
Ram: 2x4Gig 1600-1800 Mhz
Hard: HDD 1TB SATA3 64MB Buffer (I already have a 1.5TB hard)
Power: 650W

Thank you very much

That is a great mobo for your CPU.
Your GPU is really good already. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/2013/11/27/battlefield-4-performance-analysis/3

You don't need a 650w PSU for a one card. A 550w should do. (unless you want to do major overclocking)
If you plan to do dual cards, a 750-800w would be necessary.

Ram/HDD/Case are easily compatible. Use this http://pcpartpicker.com/parts/partlist/ if you want to be sure everything is compatible, it is fairly accurate :)
