7870 is better overall, but in gaming both are quite close. Best to go with a 7950.
You can save money from the 3770K and go for 3570K.

From what I've heard the 7870 is better in gaming but a 660 would be a better choice if you're doing rendering work or anything like that.

Also the 7870, but the performance gap got a bit bigger with latest amd drivers. Anand always uses drivers from when the card is released, they should update more often.
