My PC is currently:

CPU: Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.2 Ghz
Mobo: MSI P67-GD65 (B3)
GPU: EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 ti (Super Clocked)
Ram: 16GB (2 x 8GB) G.Skill Sniper Series 1600
HDD: 1TB - Samsung SpinPoint F3
Case: Corsair 500R (BLK)
PSU: Corsair TX850 V2
Monitor: 24" Sony Playstation 3D LED Display 240Hz and 23" Acer LED something
Mouse: Logitech G9x
KeyB: Logitech G105 (MW3 Edition)
HS: Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus

The GTX 560 ti is excellent but I was wondering if I should go SLI or get just one really good GPU in the future. What one GPU runs on par with SLI GTX 560 ti's? I read somewhere that it's almost as good as one 670 or 680, but I'm not sure exactly.

If I choose the GTX 600 series route, is it recommended to get a mobo that supports PCI express 3.0?

Also, if I were to upgrade to the GTX 670, will the i5-2500K be a bottleneck or vice-versa?

 
Solution
Well, seeing on how the 560 ti is still working superbly for you, I recommend actually waiting until the next line of GPU's come out, when those come out, you will have even more money, honestly I think your build is pretty solid.
