I got an inno3d ichill for £380 and had an ocz 650w power supply which I used for 6 years with a Gtx 260 and a Gtx 670. After buying the 780 in February The psu died last week , Coincidence !!! Or would it have died anyway....

Got a seasonic 850 watt for £90 on offer.

All I can honestly say about going from a 760 to a 780 is, yes you will notice the difference, if you are not that bothered about changing settings from ultra to high and lowering aa then I would think about waiting a few months longer for newer cards.
 
This week only offer on this card looks good. It's £30 over budget though.

In budget and always recommended is this.

There is not any gtx780's in your £350 budget and i think the 290x i listed has them all beat anyway. The 290 non x has them all beat price/performance as well.

If i was going for Nvidia it would probably be this due to price and it has a decent cooler.

Whatever you get in this price range you will be a happy man.

Best price / performance would be to add another Msi 760 if your motherboard supports it.

That's actually not a bad shout but i would still go for the single card due to them having around the same performance. The 760 for me is a little too cut down imo so when upping aa and the highest settings it could suffer. The vram is also just about on the limit and going forward it may be of concern.
