im not sure what to put in with my i5 3350P, 16gb ram, what's the best choice for this setup? I was thinking 760 or waiting for 960?

I wouldn't put something that powerful in there, maybe a 7770?

There is no reason why not. The 3350P is a strong CPU that will not bottleneck a 760 or 770 class card. Personally I would wait for a GTX 960 because it should allow great overclocks compared to a 760.

I am addicted to building gaming PCs but I don't have a great reason to stop...yet...

He has an ivy bridge i5 clocked at 3.1 GHz. It wouldn't even bottleneck a gtx 970. Back to op's question wait for the gtx 960 to release and see how it performs. If you can't wait (reccomended you do) get an r9 280. Its better than the gtx 760 and once overclocked it will be faster than the r9 280x/gtx 770.
