I currently have a single EVGA GeForce GTX 760 Super Clocked ACX 2GB GDDR5

My other parts are:

Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD3H

Corsair CX600 600W Power Supply

Intel Core i7-4770K

Cooler Master Hyper T4

Corsair Vengeance 8GB (1x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz

Seagate 2TB Desktop Gaming SSHD SATA 6Gb/s

Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD

Fractal Design Define R4 Case

Would it be smarter to buy another 760 for SLI or would a whole new card be a better fit for a monitor like the Dell U3415W?

My system is a hackintosh, so it runs Mac OS X and it also has Windows 10 loaded on another SSD.

I don't want to spend more than $500, as all I do is video editing in Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and Lightroom. I do mainly creative work and browse the web frequently.

Maybe once every few weeks I'll boot into Windows 10 and play CSGO or Bioshock Infinite. And I don't mind medium to high settings, doesn't need to be maxed out.

So what would be the best option for me? Thanks in advance!

YES, Absolutely I Own A Asus Strix Gtx 970 And This Card Is Aewsome For 1080p Gaming At High-Ultra Settings. Even At 1440p At Medium-High Settings This Card Can Perform Like A Beast.

Yeah I'm regretting not going with a 750W or something similar. If I saved up for it, do you think my 600W could handle a 980 Ti Hybrid? I may be able to find one cheaper but idk if my PSU could handle that much power.
