I've put this build together... but for some reason I think I could be missing out on something or get more for the amount I'm spending! (which might not actually be the case :D).

I totted up the bundle's individual parts and it only ended up saving £10 so it's a no brainer to let OCUK overclock it for me.

I realise a massive chunk is coming from the graphics card... is it worth it, or should I get a GTX 770? The system will only be used for gaming and I would like it to last me a while!

What do you reckon?

YOUR BASKET
1 x Gigabyte GeForce GTX 780 WindForce 3x OC 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (GV-N780OC-3GD) £629.99
1 x "Quasar 270i" Intel Core i7 4770K @ 4.5GHz Overclocked Haswell Gaming PC Bundle ***With a Free copy of Medal of Honor: Warfighter and Grid 2*** £619.99
1 x Standard Build Systems - Approximately 5-7 working days £0
1 x TeamGroup Vulcan ORANGE 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLAD38G2133HC11ADC01) £71.99
1 x NZXT Phantom 820 Enthusiast Full Tower Case - White £199.99
1 x Samsung 256GB SSD 840 PRO SATA 6Gb/s Basic - (MZ-7PD256BW) £189.95
Total : £1,728.41 (includes shipping : £13.75).

 
Forgot to mention I have the Asus PB278Q so it'll be 1440p.

I'll probably look at getting another one in a few months and run a dual monitor setup, would it be worth sticking with the 780?
 
I meant dual 1440p monitors with a single GTX 780.
In these circumstances I'd probably be better off with the 780 over the 770, right?

I've had another look and can probably save £100 on the case too.
I'll be recycling my current 750w corsiar PSU, will that be sufficient?
