Yes, that will probably max out most of the games out there currently. (Atleast with 1080p) The price point looks good to me atleast.

You might also want to get an SSD for faster boot speeds.

At what resolution?

Also look into a 4670k and a Z87 motherboard.

And take note that DDR4 RAM is slated to come out in a couple months.

I would get 8gb of RAM instead of 6. Get a 600w bronze corsair psu, because its cheaper.

I would avoid the WD Blue if I were you. I bought a 1TB WD Blue and I hate that stupid thing. It's super loud and constantly thrashing, even when PC isn't doing anything. I was benchmarking read/write speeds at like 80MB/s.

DDR4 as any other DDR update will probably not drastically change anything.

Nice build, but if I were you I'd swap the Gigabyte GTX 770 4GB for Gigabyte GTX 770 2GB. Nobody needs 4GB VRAM. However if it's only a matter of dollars to have the 4GB, stick with it.

Except by waiting a couple of months, he can save himself the money from upgrading to DDR4, considering they are likely to use a different mobo, and you don't upgrade 4-core cpus except maybe 5 or 6 years.

I thought DDR4 was supported by haswell E, I don't remember seeing anything saying that DDR4 was supported by the bulk of Haswell.
