Because of my last post, I took the advice to start all over.
P.S, I'm building this myself.
Not changing the case, I love this one too much.
The case: Graphite Series 230T Windowed Compact Mid-Tower Case Rebel Orange

The Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD

The Power Supply: EVGA 500W 80PLUS Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Power Supply 100-W1-0500-KR

The Network Adapter: TP-LINK TL-WN851ND Wireless N300 PCI Adapter, 2.4GHz 300Mbps

Lighting: Logisys CLK12 12" Cold Cathode Kit with Dual Tube, 3.0mm Tube Diameter, White

The Fan Controller: NZXT SENTRY 2 Accessories 5.25-Inch Touch Screen Fan Controller

RAM: Corsair Vengeance Blue 8 GB (2X4 GB) PC3-12800 1600mHz DDR3 240-Pin SDRAM Dual Channel Memory

Solid State Drive PNY XLR8 SATA 120GB 6Gbps 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive

Overall the total build is going to cost me $901 and I'm willing to make changes to the entire build as long as I don't go over $950

Are you running two monitors? if not, there isn't much point in getting the 4GB version of the card.
You should get the next model up if you want more gaming performance for the same price.
This card is very highly rated, and there is a significant difference in terms of performance.

Yes
I however would get a 2GB 760 or a 2GB 770 if you can afford the 770. This is because the extra VRAM can slow the GPU down a little as it has to deal with double the memory than it would normally do. Also, there is very little difference on benchmarks between the same card at 2 and 4GB.
