I'm saving up some money for a new gaming PC and after some research i came with this build:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4670/4670K
MOBO: GIGABYTE G1.Sniper B5/ another motherboard
GPU: MSI GTX 760/770( not sure yet)
RAM: ADATA 8 GB DDR3-1600 Kit
CASE: Aerocool X-Warrior
PSU: Corsair CX600M

I do still have a 500 GB HDD, which is enough for now. I will upgrade to an SSD and another drive later, but those have a lower priority.

But, i still have some questions.
1.)I heard the G1 sniper doesn't have the soundcore 3D is this a big deal( i need a Dolby Digital Live soundcard for my headset, if none of these support that correct me) If it is a big deal, i might upgrade to an other MOBO.

2.) for mediocore gaming on a 1080p screen, would the 770 be worth it's 60 euro's( about 80 dollars) or should i stick with the 760 and get some other upgrades? I plan on primarily playing Battlefield 4, minecraft, and some other games.

Thanks in advance!


 
Starting with the CPU down. CPU: id choose the i5 4670k which will allow you to overclock. MOBO: the motherboard seems nice the sound core is no big deal, I have the MSI z87-g45 gaming, nice gaming motherboard. GPU: get the 770 you won't regret it :) but if you're on a budget you should get the 760 (be sure to get the MSI version!). RAM: 8gb good you won't need more for gaming. Case: the case is... pfft... idk where to start it looks something like knights vs aliens. PSU: the psu is ok to handle 1 760/770 but if you're going to sli id recommend a good quality corsair supply with 750w or higher. That's my comments on that, overall nice build :) Id look more into the case cuz it's the only part of the pc which you see and if you don't like it you'll be face palming yourself and thinking why you bout that case xD, but if you like that case I'm happy for you :)
