I have this motherboard: ASUS® P8Z77-V: PCI-E 3.0 READY, WIFI, SLI, CROSSFIREX

My CPU also is: Intel® Core™i5-2500 Quad Core (3.30GHz, 6MB Cache) + HD Graphics

And would just like to know if I could upgrade to a GTX 760 graphics card? (I currently have a GTX 570)
Thanks

Yes you can. Everything seems perfectly compatible. And you dont need to worry about bottlenecking because your CPU will definitely run a GTX 760 well.

Thanks, I have no idea what bottlenecking is. Do you know if they are easy to self-install as well, as this is what I am looking at doing?

They are amazingly easy to install. Don't worry about that, all you have to do is first switch of all the power from your PC (including from the socket - because there will still be current flowing through) and disconnect all the cable/cable headers from your current GPU and gently pull it out of your motherboard. Then do the Vice versa of that. (put your new GPU in your motherboard and attach all the cables and then turn your PC on).
As simple as that! It may seem a bit complicated, but trust me its not.
If I didn't explain it clearly enough then look at this youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liWhQsF1rLc - its not the best tutorial but it will definitely help!
