For the same price you can get an R9 290 which is significantly faster than the 770 and as fast as the 970 in many cases. The Power Supply you chose also isn't very good quality so I switched it with a very high quality unit that costs only $10 more. Hope this helped.

I found a bundle with the i5-4690K in it. Should I take that instead?
