Thanks!

For 2.5k? Nope. Build it yourself and you can have a much better build. But if you don't wanna build it yourself then be my guest to waste money.

lolno. A GTX 770 in a $2500 build? Could porbably get an R9 295x2 in a build with your budget. Build yourself. Don't just wipe it off 'cause you're "lazy" and pay through the nopse for a pre-built. Building a PC is really fun. It's also a huuuuge money saver. Remember, the companies(or whoever) sell pre-built PC's are trying to make as much profit as possible, they don't care if you get your moneys worth or not.

Just a heads up, if I had that kind of budget, I'd be looking at something like this;

personally I would go with sanctorum's build
even if you are lazy you would get a computer that is a lot better. I build my first one in two hours so it will not be that much of a chore to build.

You might be able to get something better than I suggested with your money but for your needs, what I suggested would be fine. If I had $2.5k, that is what I'd spend it on personally. If you like the look of it, get it.

Building isn't a chore in any way. I recently built a new PC which took me no longer than an hour. Installing Windows, drivers and the rest will take a little longer but to actually build the PC shouldn't take too long. I built my first PC when I was 13, didn't have a clue what I was doing and didn't watch any tutorials, built it in an around an hour so it's not hard or confusing. There are a bunch of helpful YT builds if you get stuck/confused and need a little help. Personally, I think building is pretty fun.
