Hi,

Would appreciate some advice about upgrading the following system. Used foe games such as WOT, FSX, GTA V (once upgraded), BF4, Far Cry etc

My rig was bought in 2011 so probably needs a refresh, or would be interested to know if others think a complete new system:

Titan Spinosaur from OC
Intel i5-2500k 3.3 Ghz (Sandybridge) LGA1155
Gigabyte Z68X-UD3P Intel Z68 DDR3 Motherboard
OCZ Agility 3 60GB SSD
OcUK GeForce GTX570 1280MB GDDR5 PCI express graphics
Kingston HyperX Genesis 8GB DDR3 Memory (upgraded from 4GB originally)
22x DVDRW
Corsair Hydro H50-1 Luiquid CPU Cooler
Western Digital 500GB HDD
Xigmatek 120mmCrystal Purple LED Fan
XFX Pro 650W Core Edition Power Supply

I have overclocked to 4.4 GHz and works fine. I guess the obvious choice is to upgrade the GPU to maybe the GTX770 or 970, but I'm not particularly computer savvy so would appreciate advice please.
 
How would I check the BIOS? Sorry, as I said not particularly computer savvy. Budget is dependent on how long the upgrade would give me, up to £1000 for new system, maybe £300-£350 for upgrade?
 
great, I'll do that, reset the OC and follow you guys advice. Is it worth OC again when the new SSD and GPU are added, or will it be fast enough anyway?
