whats your budget? I would get a beefier PSU and an SSD. Also, get a Be Quiet! Pure Rock CPU cooler.

770 seems like a bad choice. If you are on tight budget get something like gtx960 or r9 290.

If so, instead get a r9 280x or 290. These are both great performing cards for their price point.

I would go with some high speed RAM, your motherboard has great potential, I would utilize more of it's capabilities. May not do you much more good for games, but when you start to do other functions and start utilizing more background programs the extra speed in the RAM can greatly help the processor, especially in programs like Chrome when you use multiple tabs.

What do you guys think? If you have any suggestions, tips or things like that please tell me.

Unless you have that GPU or are getting one used for $70.. your not going to have a gpu..

 

For a $700 build all in with new parts, this is about as good as you can go.. (allows sli, possible drop in upgrade to unlocked cpu for oc later)

You could shave a bit off here and there and try get a better gpu.. but it's a choice of 960 or 380x at this budget.
