Yo. I am looking to upgrade a graphics card in the future (not immediately). Space is not an issue, because I am soon upgrading from an Antec 300 to a Fractal Design Define R2 XL. So sexy. Anyway, I want to be able to run new games on great settings (Far Cry 3 everything maxed out). I have an AMD FX-8350 (no OC, but I do have a hyper 212 EVO), HIS IceQ X HD 7850 2gb 256 bit OC'd to 1000mhz core clock and 1400mhz memory clock, and a SeaSonic M12II 620W power supply. Thanks for any input!
 
Sounds like you have a great system as is. I don't think I would even begin to consider upgrading until Nvidia releases Maxwell which should be early Q2 in 2014.

As cheap as 7850s are I think I would choose X-Fire as my first upgrade path if I was going to upgrade at all.
