Ive been contemplating upgrading my GPU for a while, I was pretty set on a 290 a while ago but after seeing so many issues ive held off for now.

My current set up

2700k @ 4.4
ASRock extreme3
8gb
Evo 250gb SSD, 2x64gb crucials
Benq xl2411t
570gtx
520w psu

I would ideally like to spend close to £300 as possible, however if there is something really worth getting around £350 then i could stretch to it. A major concern for me is my PSU, a (pretty old) Corsair HX520. Is it up to the job? Will my CPU be a bottleneck for newer cards?
