I have an i5-3570K with a Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H motherboard inside of a regular sized case with an R9 270X GPU.
I also have an i7-990X CPU that I was given as part of a Shuttle SX58J3.
What I would like to do is sell the i7 and the i5 motherboard and purchase a Raven RVZ01 case, but I'm going to need a new motherboard for it.
My questions are:

My questions are:
Is there a CPU I can upgrade to that's faster than the 3570k that will make a noticeable difference? In looking around online it seems that the i7-4770k might be a good pick because this site says it's faster and from I see on eBay it's cheaper too.
Will the R9 270X that I have fit in that case?
