Right now I have this setup:

Operating System
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i7 930 @ 2.80GHz
Bloomfield 45nm Technology
RAM
6.00GB Triple-Channel DDR3 @ 534MHz (8-8-8-20)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK Computer INC. P6T SE (LGA1366)
Graphics
EW224 (1920x1080@60Hz)
FUNAI TV (1920x1080@60Hz)
1024MB ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series (ATI AIB)

Can I use a GeForce GTX of any type 680 or above? If not (or maybe even yes) are there any other cards which support PhysX, directx11, etc. with a dollar amount cap of around $300?

Your board will take that video card without issues. The 7XX cards(the GTX 770 is an overclocked 680 with faster memory) may be cheaper with the same and better performance.

Just ensure you meet the power requirements.

your i7-930 is getting a little dated, but its still a good cpu by normal people standards.... if you really need physx, just go with the 760.... but waiting until thanksgiving/black friday will save you a few bucks and likely get you a good gaming bundle... maybe battlefield 4 for free.

Thanks for this. That's probably what I'm going to end up doing, though I'll shoot for arkham origins if I can get it...lol.
