Solution
god thing your going rev 2.0, as the rev 1.0 Gigabyte coolers are terrible.

The R9 280X would be my opt for GPU, as it has the best chance at maxing out games for longer due to the 3GB Vram on the 384-bit memory bus. The gTX 770 is of similar performance, with both cards taking blows in different games, at 720p (HD) resolution, both cards will max out any game at above 60 FPS easily, if you want BF4 for free also, get the R9 280X!

Both cards will go to 100% capability on your motherboard, as it has a PCI-E X16 slot, best it can be.

No bottleneck from CPU, a great processor

PSU: Corsair HX 650. Top quality PSU, Massive 7 years warranty period, 80+ GOLD certified, that is something quality...
