Here's an upgrade to the i5-4590
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant
CPU: Intel Core i5-4590 3.3GHz Quad-Core Processor (£137.99 @ Aria PC)
Motherboard: ASRock B85 Pro4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (£64.83 @ Amazon UK)
Total: £202.82
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available
You could get a new mouse with the remaining cash. The GPU is currently alright, same goes for RAM, so you don't really need to upgrade them.

You can add a better cpu cooler later if the need arises or you want to OC. If you are not interested in OCing then get the 4690(non k) instead and save a few bucks. Also the motherboard supports SLI so you''' have the ability to add another 760 later if you want.
