I am planning to upgrade my graphics card to either a GTX 1060/1070/1080 and I am wanting to know if it will fit and run okay for my pc.

Parts:
Case: Corsair - SPEC-01 RED ATX Mid Tower Case
Mother board: MSI 970 Gaming
CPU - AMD -FX-8350 4.0GHz 8-Core Processor
CPU Cooler - Cooler Master - Hyper T2 54.8 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
PSU - Corsair CP-9020047-UK Builder Series CX500 ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze Power Supply Unit, 500 W

I built the PC in January 2015

Please could you tell my if all of them will fit if not if any.

1. make and model of your power supply. but seeing a GTXC 970 there I assume you have 2xpcie connectors so you should be fine. (if at least 750w.)
2. yes any of those cards will rung on your system
3. likely you will have CPU bottlenecking with 1070/1080 (ie GTX970- = 1060 3gb) so you would want 1070 or 1080 anyways.
4. are you playing in 4K ? if not you don't need 1080.

Nope, I do not plan on playing in 4k. So a 1070 would be okay for me?
