Upgrade Help - GFX Card and CPU Cooler

[FlapR]

Going to treat myself for my birthday and upgrade my graphics card, just wondered what's the best choice based on a budget of up to around £200 based on my current system, can stretch further if its really worth it.

Currently running the following:

Windows 8.1 64bit
AMD FX-8320 @ 3.5Ghz
AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB GDDR5
M5A97 EVO R2.0
Corsair CX600M 80 Plus Bronze

Also looking for a decent CPU Cooler that doesn't sound like a jet engine and will fit into my Corsair 300R.

Cheers!

Cheers Shivy.

Looking at some benchmarks online, the GTX 970 seems a fair bit better, would my Mobo+CPU hold it back at all?

Looking through the 970's now and the price range is confusing me a little bit! Is the following okay?

YOUR BASKET
1 x EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC ACX 2.0 4096MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card (04G-P4-2974-KR) £251.99
Total : £261.59 (includes shipping : £8.00).



Finally, would the CPU coolers be okay if I did some overclocking in the future or would I need something a bit heftier?

Right I'll grab one of the GTX970 's you suggested and I'll have a look at the beefier CPU coolers now. I'd rather spent extra and get decent upgrades that will last me a while.

I just had the £200~ budget in mind because I didn't know if I'd be limited by my CPU + Power Supply and if I didn't set myself some budget I'd end up spending a ridiculous amount!

Thanks again.
