Right now I've got: i5 3570k OC'd to 4.5 ghz 6970 2 GB 8 GB RAM DDR3 A shitty case that does not help keep the heat down 2 x 250gb hard drives 650W Coolermaster GX PSU Z77 Pro3 Motherboard I need a new card, (looking at the 770 GTX), new case, looking at this: [URL]http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003WE9WQY/?tag=pcpapi-20[/URL], new HD, [URL]http://pcpartpicker.com/part/seagate-internal-hard-drive-st1000vx000[/URL] and new CD drive, [URL]http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-optical-drive-drw24b1stblkbas[/URL] Does this look OK?
If you are going for the 770, I recommend this: [url]http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn770oc2gd[/url] (or the 4 GB version if you really think you need it: [url]http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn770oc4gd[/url]). The HDD and optical drive look fine.
Buy Radeon HD 7970, marginally slower than GTX 770. So you can have more cash to spend on SSD for your OS.
I have a fractal desing arc midi 2 and it's really really nice case. Lots of room for you components and it comes with three really quiet case fans. As for the GFX card, I only have good things to say about a 770. An amazing card that'll last you good two to three years.
