How can I improve this build later on in the year?

[SpartanSK117]

Hey guys,

I recently built my first Gaming pc back in November and I was wondering what components I could change later on in the year or early next year when I want to upgrade certain components.

Case: NZXT Phantom 530
Motherboard: Gigabayte GA Z87X-UD3H
Graphics card: Gainward Phantom GTX 760
RAM: Kingston HyperX Genesis 2X4GB (8GB)
CPU: Intel i5-4670k (currently running at 4 GHz)
Cooler: NZXT Kraken X40
PSU: Corsair Gamer's series GS700w
HDD: 1TB WD Caviar Blue, 160GB WD Scorpio Blue

This build cost just under £1000

Thanks, I'm looking forward to hearing your suggestions!

That looks like a nice build to me, the only thing I would wish to upgrade over the next 12 months is the GPU.. maybe more VRAM may be required in the future..?

Maybe in the future you can upgrade the GPU or SLI it.

For better graphics would indeed sli be the best and cheapest option.
You could also look at an ssd for a faster pc in general.
