I've had this power supply for a few years now

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153033

and i'm looking to make some upgrades.

I'm sort of torn between the 760GTX and the 770GTX, reason being is i'm confident that the 760 will be fine but with the 770 i may run into some issues with power consumption?

The rest of the build is SSD(128mb)/HDD (1tb), 8GB Ram, i5 4670 and only stock fans/cooling. I won't be overclocking in the near future. Would i be safe with this build and the 770 or would i have to drop more money on say a 750W PSU to run it safely.

You will also need a new PSU , that one is not good quality.

I'm in the UK, and live local to this shop, i assume this one here would be ample for the 770?
