Also, if you're planning to SLI the GTX 760, you may be bottlenecked by the FX-6300. I'm not sure if a 600w psu can handle SLI GTX 760 either.

I'm fairly sure the FX-6300 would bottleneck, because it's a $100 processor paired with a $500 SLI solution. Anyways, I don't think you should SLI because that would mean replacing the motherboard (and since you replaced the motherboard you'll need to change OS if you're using the OEM version) and the psu so you can actually SLI. I think you're better off selling the GTX 760 and going for a stronger gpu like a GTX 770/780. That way, you don't need to replace the other parts as well.
Also, I would go for a FX-8320 and overclock it so you won't get a bottleneck.

Yes, the 6300 will bottleneck.
I totally agree with realchaos.
Ditch the 760 when the time comes and then get a single better GPU. This will be WAY cheaper then getting a new motherboard/PSU/CPU/ another 760.

Could a 600w handle a 770? If i could get 160-200$ for my 760 id have no problem getting a 770
Would a 6300 be able to pair with a 770? Id be willing to upgrade to an 8320 or look at future intel cpu
Any price cuts on intel this year?

Yes 600w will easily handle a 770.
A 6300 would be fine with a 770. It would only bottleneck a tiny bit in VERY CPU intensive games like bf4, but generally it will be perfectly fine.
changing to intel is pointless and just a HUGE waste of money (will also need a new motherboard and new windows) Just get an 8320 later on.

YEs people buy used CPUs. If you sell the 6300 expect to get about 30% less than you pair for it.
You can reinstall windows 8.1. If you had 7 you might have to buy it again or ask microsoft for a new key.
DOn't even consider getting intel. Just get an 8320 and get a single better GPU. You will be much happier in the long run not spending so much money.
