My specs are
I7 4770K
GeForce 760
8GM RAM
4 case fans

I currently have the Antec high current gamer 520W gamer, but will it be enough for when I overclock my CPU? Do i need to upgrade? if so what PSU voltage and brand is best?

You do not need a new PSU, the one you have is made by Seasonic so of great quality.

It is more than enough for that spec and overclocking, you can even swap your GFX card out for a 970/980/290 etc and keep using it.

Haha thanks, But i hardly see the point of upgrading to a stronger GPU, my 760 runs every game on ultra, what need is there

just asking

Also it depends on the games played

But its hard to say, when you find you need to turn down the graphic settings and if you up the monitor res.

This is the monitor I recently got, its amazing, not too sure if it was worth it though for the G-Sync haha, but oh well. Only dont understand, i was playing far cry 4, and the video options had a "Nvidia" setting and that made it worse, Ultra worked fine though.
