What would be the best for my gaming PC?

[Claaken]

I am at a point where im not sure what to do with my gaming pc :/ I want to acheive a better system but it will cost alot of money and will take alot of time.

For around £1500 I would like to hopefully get

Intel Core i5 3570K CPU
Intel 300 Series 180GB SSD
MSI Z77A-G45 motherboard
MSI GeForce GTX 660 Ti Power Edition
Seagate Barracuda 3TB hard drive
Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR3 RAM
Corsair GS700 power supply
Corsair H100i
Corsair SP Quiet fans
Corsair Vengeance 1300 headset
Corsair M65 gaming mouse
Cooler Master CM Storm Scout II case
CM Storm Quickfire Pro keyboard

In order to get this build though I can only think of one option which would be to sell my current PC. I am not however sure on how much money I could get from my system though. These are my current specs

CPU: AMD (Piledriver) FX-8320 3.50GHz (4.00GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 8-Core Processor - Retail - OVERCLOCKED TO 4.0GHz
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO Quiet CPU Cooler
GPU: Msi GTX770 4gb Twin Frozr
PSU: EVGA Supernova 850 G2 80 Plus Gold
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3P
H.D.D : Western Digital 1TB
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Pro Series DDR3 2x8GB 16GB 2400MHz
CASE: MS-Tech Hornet

What are your views and suggestions on this. All I need is a powerful high end gaming system.

You are going up to an intel i5 (even though the 3570 is the old platform that would cost as much or more then current one), but then taking a big drop in GPU from your current gtx 770 to a gtx 660 ti.

What is holidng you back you with your current PC?
That 8320 is not as fast as an i5 but you sould be having no issues with an O.C. 8320 and that 770 gpu.

Much better build within your budget i have given you 8 gb of ram because having 16 gb ram just for gaming will not utilize half of the ram and i have given the 750 watt PSu because if you plan to SLI in future then you dont have to bother about changing the PSu for that any more.

your current 8320+770 is a very good gaming rig. i dont see much point in the overhaul of the whole system. i would say just get a noctua or phanteks cooler and squeeze every bit of overclock out of the 8320 that you can get. you can likely get to 4.8ghz no problem and at that speed, i feel the 8320 is a very decent processor.

otherwise, you could just get a z97+4690k and reuse your current hyper 212. throw in a 120gb ssd. and if you choose you can sell your 770 and get a new 970. otherwise everything else in your rig is definitely good to go, no need to start over. and dont forget you can still get some money back from the the gigabyte motherboard and 8320 if you choose this route.

Well its all because of my GPU. Its been driving me crazy. What is happening is every time I re install the GPU drivers after win7 re install I cannot get past the starting windows screen without the whole system rebooting. Ive tried a few things but I just dont know what to do
Could it be fixed by getting a new HardDrive? I have no idea what to do but get a whole new PC
