Get a GTX 680 or hd7970 GHz since you can buy it but it is really not necessary. You have a low resolution display so to play all games at ultra you don't need such a high powered gpu. Youll be fine on a HD 7870.
if you are upgrading to a 1080p or 1440p display or 1600p you better get the GTX 680 or HD7970. Also it will be good for you to wait as I've heard that the new generation gpu will be much better and cheaper than the current one.
