BF4 should run on a mix of high-ultra.
Crysis - I haven't played it before, but I've heard it's very demanding, so I'd expect to run it on medium-high (I may be wrong).
As for the OS, get 8.1 if you want windows 8, but if you've used windows 7 and like it, you could keep that. There aren't any huge differences between the two, but I like staying up to date, so win 8.1 is for me.

Ok, so there is a couple things you could do. You could buy the 760 and get decent performance in games and then save up some money and buy another 760 for sli later and get way better performance than a single 770 could offer. You could also do the same thing with the 770 and buy another 770 later, but I don't know your financial situation. Just a couple things you could do but if you are a power user and want to see significant gains now get a 770.

TheKeegano101 wroteIt would be pointless to get 2 760s when at the same price you could by a 780 amd get twice the performance. I dont ever recommend sli unless you're running multi-monitors or higher than 1080p resolutions.Elpacotaco912 wrote Should i pay the extra and get the 770?

Elpacotaco912 wrote Hey, I was wondering if this PC could run games like BF4 and Crysis 3 and still get a good FPS on high settings?Your build looks good, execept for your psu, i would change that for xfx 550 watt instead. Also windows 8.1 is the preferred choice for gaming because it is known to help improve in-game performance.

I may get an extra 760 in the future and get 2 monitors. Another question can I hook up 2 monitors to a GPU that has 1 HDMI out? Will it just mirror the first screen or will it be like an extension?

Another thing to consider is if you are going to overclock or not. If you don't overclock you could save about $120 (if you decided to get a hyper evo and if you got the nonoverclockable version of your processor listed). With that money you could put it into a 770 and a better PSU that could allow you to SLI another 770 in the future. Or you could use that money to get an SSD if you are keen on a faster startup times and such although I'd personally get the more powerful card. Happy Buiding

The first build what exceed your needs. I max out Battlefield 4 everyday on Ultra at 70fps solid with a AMD FX-4300 O/C to 4.3GHz and a GTX 760 O/C. The 770 is not needed really. The unlocked 4670(k) gives you room to overclock as well as the GTX 760 overclocks very well. If you do go with your latest post build, I would get an air cooler because you have no room to overclock with the locked CPU. I suggest the 212 Evo.
