Which GPU?

Currently half way through a system build (first in 6 years, so much to catch up on).

I keep changing my mind on the GPU so I would like my options narrowed down.
First off it was a 760 Windforce, then a 280X Toxic, then a 290 stock and now I'm at a Zotac 780. I'm getting impatient so don't fancy waiting for the after market 290 options and Christmas will eat away at my budget (see girlfriend and kids).

My current system spec (budget dictated certain parts)
4670k (not oc'd yet)
Gigabyte Z87-HD3
NH-U14S Noctua cooler
16gb Corsair Vengeance Pro
Fractal Design Define R4 (space not an issue but noise is)
23.6" Hanns.G monitor (1080p) (will be dual monitor at some point)
Win 8.1

My budget has crept up a little (thank you Mr Taxman) but £400 is the absolute limit as I still need to get a PSU (probably Corsair RM750) and SSD.

What would you do? and will my planned PSU be okay with it?
I'm not biased towards red or green team

Thanks

Edit: I play all sorts of games from FTL to Skyrim and will be partaking in BF4. My missus does clever stuff sometimes with photos.

Excellent, thank you.

Has to wait til the end of the month, I should have mentioned that and I think I'll go the 780 route.
