I am building a computer for gaming mainly but I would like it to be an all around good computer in case I decide to go into graphic design. The motherboard I was planning on using is a Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H, The ram I was planning on using is G Skill Ripjaws X series 16gb (2x8gb) ddr3 1600. I was looking at getting the MSI gaming N750 Ti TF 2GD5/oc Geforce GTX 750 Ti 2gb 128 bit. Is that graphics card a good choice for the motherboard processor and ram I am planning on buying?

You should be able to run a 750ti fine, however if you let us know what your PSU is and your budget for a graphics card, we might be able to give advice on if a 750ti is the best card for you.

Its all based on your budget and amount of power ur psu can handle, any card can be with that cpu as long as your mobo supports the graphic card pci slot

Okay lol I am a little new at this I know the basics but when it gets to graphics and overclocking and stuff like that I have no clue. I know this might be a stupid question but why would you want to run more than one graphics card?

You run multiple graphics cards (SLI and crossfire) for better performance. However its not recommended if you have a single card alternative. See this: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/245454-33-crossfire-faqs

I'm not sure why you think you need a 1300 PSU tho, I'd recommended getting something better with less W like the Corsair AX760/860 and using the extra money to get a GTX 760/770 or a R9 280X/290. You will run games much better.
