You could sli two gtx 670 for the multimonitor setup
The jump from 500 to 600 is very worth it, especially in the high end parts.

You don´t need anything more to be upgraded just try to Oc that i5 with an aftermarket cooler like the 212 evo and you´re good to go.

Yeah I'd definetely recommend throwing a bit more out and trying to get dual 670s.... Even with reference and bone stock 670s you'd have some blistering performance figures, and they're really the best price/performance by far in the upper-end of the market.
I have a EVGA GTX 670 FTW btw and It's been flawless for me.
