System Specs:

Intel Core i7 3770k (Retail Fan) - Upgrading soon, recommendation for a good cpu fan welcome :)

the 760 is a re-branded gtx 670.....which isn't really an upgrade, from what you have already. If you have the money to spend, then go for a gtx 770. It is your money though, so spend it the way you want to spend it.

your system is good to go with any graphics card upgrade, however, it feels like you are only doing an incremental upgrade on your rig. Get a gtx 770 or add a 20$ for r9 280x at least in order for you to feel the difference.
