This spec is IMO worth the extra 20 quid. You'll have huge performance increases over your current spec.

As for PSU it should be able to handle the upgrade just fine...

can that mobo (ASUS P8P67 Intel P67) overclock well?
are there not cheaper mobos for around £100 that are just as good? (and can overclock?)

Yep almost all the P67 mobos can go to about the same speeds,maybe except the more expensive ones which will prolly go higher.

As for the cheaper alternatives....yes there are a few but lack some features
