Ok since my budget is around 1500 EU and since im upgrading my current PC components i was wondering what are the best ones to replace them for ?

NOTE: Here at my country everything is 20% Expensive because of the border taxes.

The components are:

CPU: Intel i5 2500K
GPU: Gigabyte HD 6850 Overclocked
HDD: Samsung Spinpoint 1 TB
PSU: 500W (forgot the manufacturer name)
RAM: 8 GB (^)
MB: Asrock Z77 Extreme4
Case: NZXT LEXA S
Monitor: Samsung 22" SA300B LED

Now what i want to replcase:

GPU :Already starting to feel as it cant max out most games so i was planning on getting a more future proof one GTX 970 (307 EU)

PSU: A new module one, and because of the new GPU

HDD: Not replace but add a SSD between Crucial MX5100 256GB Samsung 850 PRO 128GB (Both 107 EU)

Things im not sure to replace:

RAM: Dont know should I add more 8GB for future proofing.

Case: Its pretty good, never noticed a flaw in it, but I dont know does it need replacing.

Monitor: Not sure about this one too

Things i wont replace:

CPU: Dont know why would iI repalce it unless there is significance difference between this one and new ones
MB: For CPU.

So can anyone make suggestions for everything written here ?
