Hi Im contemplating getting a GTX 680 and one of the Z77 boards.

I was jsut wondering what people would recommend....

Budget. Games. Resolution. Do you need OS, monitor, HDD, keyboard, mouse?

You need to give more information if you want people to help you

1920x 1080
I don't really have a budget just wanted to know peoples opinions
WoW, GW2
monitor Samsung S23A700D 23"
I'll sort the rest out with one of the pre-built systems

Well if you're set on a 680 [the 7970s are cheaper at the moment] I'd get an EVGA for their excellent warranty

Not saying the 680 is a bad choice, some people prefer Nvidia and would buy one no matter the price - just saying the 7970 is an option
