That's not bad. Still have to make sure I have wiggle room. Just got back from vacation and I just spent like 60 bucks on parts that I wasn't expecting to need.

It's $31.49 till May 4th on Steam. I usually use this website http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri to make sure that the game that I'm going to purchase will work on my computer.
@ the recommended requirements 
CPU: AMD FX-8150 or Intel Core i5 4670K
CPU Speed: Info
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
Video Card: AMD Radeon R9 290 or Nvidia GeForce GTX 780
Sound Card: Yes
Free Disk Space: 35 GB
I guess this game will look like **** on my GTX 770 with my i5 3570k
If its good enough it will give me an excuse to need to buy a new graphics card. I'm running a HD795 at the moment.

See I'm cheap and don't need a new graphics card. The GTX 770 should be sufficient enough.

Holy large picture batman!
Congrats on the PC! The only thing that would annoy me is the wires up top (by the h100i). I would have tried to tuck them away/hide them better.
What you using the PC for? Dual GTX 980's! damn

Support ticket submitted to Logitech for my G930.. :-/
Trust me I'm cheap too. The card I'm using now was a hand me down from a friend who got a better card. I usually upgrade every 2-3 years and its about that time. I'll probably be looking for the best AMD based card I can get my hands on for $200 or less. Probably something in the R9 series.

Team Green is better
So everyone keeps telling me, but I have yet to have any issues with Radeon cards.

I didn't have any issues with my HD6950 card but switched when I had issues with my brand new R9-280x (coil whine bad) and they were out of stock to exchange so I went with the GTX770
I'm pretty sure that's the card that my roommate has. Seems decent. I just got my girl a R9 270X around Christmas and that seems to do quite well also.
At the same time my money may be better spent upgrading the amount of ram I have currently.
Not bad, but still a lot of money when your trying to save up to get a race prepped transmission for your project car.

Sell your race car and invest money in your PC.
Correction: Sell a little piece of my soul and invest in my PC.
