If your buying a 4770, you would probably wan't a little more than a 640. Dependent on your budget ofc.

And presuming you don't already you would want a motherboard and case to go with that aswell. I would possibly look at buying a pre-made system if you don't think you are ready, Computers aren't cheap.

If you're using this for gaming,you can drop the 16GB of RAM and change the i7 to a i5 as you won't see the difference in gaming.
Also with your budget on a GPU,i suggest you get a R9 280X with your budget,they are out of stock at the moment but try and find some if you want.

There is a few GTX 770 models that are going for the same price range as a R9 280x.

Well yes obviously some expensive R9 280x models will be the same as some 770's however with his budget the 2 cards are just over his budget,and the cheapest 770 is around 250 quid where as 3 or 5 280x's are below that.

You're wrong.Minecraft is heavly CPU dependant so it doesn't matter about your GPU.So you will get good FPS,however you do really need to get a better GPU if you want to play other games.

It is still not worth paying how much for a i7, i5 is good enough.

yes,don't get me wrong the i7 is not needed,i was just pointing out if he DID get the CPU then it would run fine.
