I would like to build my computer, its my first time so I do not really know much.
I plan on using the computing mainly for gaming which can carry well into the next gen games.
The decided budget is around 1.3K. I have only decided on one graphic card that I thought would be good which is the nVidia GTX 770 but I do not know what brand or type to buy as well. Help?

No i do not have any old spare parts, consider I am going for a whole new set.

Games include but not limited to far cry 4, AC U, alien isolation and such.

Do advise on wireless internet connections as well. LAN cable is not really an option here.

@Jian19 I see you have recommended me the GTX 970 although I have said I would prefer the 770. Why would you recommend it? Is it more value for money? Or is it just better? Do enlighten me.

970 is more efficient, has better performance and is cheaper than 770. Not sure why u wanna get something slightly inferior.


Right now, one of the best value high end gpu would be 970.

970 'pawns' the 780 (and blows away 770) in terms of performance and power consumption. Won't go wrong with it.
