It's a standard ATX case, so it will fit a GTX 760, but an 800watt PSU is overkill. 500watts from XFX or SeaSonic is fine.

The GTX 760 requires a quality 500watt PSU. Maybe if you SLI then a 800watt PSU would be needed.

as for compatibility, I'm not too sure, but if you're planning to buy it, and swap the GPU, I wouldn't recommend it. Build your own PC, raise it good, and be proud of it.

thanks
I just recently got this ( Asus Essentio M51BC running AMD FX 8300 series )
and I have been thinking if I should change into a better case and changing a lot more stuff - but it's just over my budget.
I willing to spend another $500 - $600 on upgrading the power supply and GPU ,, mainly wanted a big power supply cz currently using a Radeon HD8750 at 2gb which is pretty decent ,,good card. ,,but since planning to change the Power supply ,,I do that as well.

or should I get a 600w - 650w then??

How is it future proof ? Newer stuff are SUPPOSED to consume less power like Nvidia's new Maxwell cards. They run on 400 watt PSUs.
You really don't need a 800watt PSU. Whoever told you that ?

Build it yourself ! It's more fun and it's gonna be your pride and joy.

Checkout the Gigabyte GTX 760. It's cooler and quieter than the rest. And for the PSU, go for a Seasonic S12ii, Antec High current gamer, XFX pro, or Corsair CX. These series of PSUs from different companies are of high quality, but the Corsair CX series should be the minimum. Their other PSUs are pretty good too
