GTX 260 is really bad and old, go for a 960 if your budget allows it, or a gtx 750ti if you dont want to spend that much. Also regarding the cpu, go for the 4690k, it has better thermals, so you can overclock it more, its the same price as a 4670k.
Oh and i suppose you already have that 320gb hdd, but if you dont just buy a 1tb one.

definitely not too much. the 260X is a pretty weak card. won't be getting all available DX effects on at even 1080p with most modern games with a decent frame rate. the very lowest i would go is 270X, or 960 if you have a little extra to spend. the rest is pretty nice.

the 750ti is also very old, no DX12 support. the 950 would be a much better decision if you were leaning that way.
