Just buy another 670 and SLI them. Also get better internet if possible and make sure you can power the extra card. Also get another HDD so you can record to one drive if recording and play on the other.

Internet is most important for streaming obviously.

Only thing worth upgrading is the graphics card, consider the new GTX970 or GTX980. Also connection quality will define the quality of your stream.

Set your bitrate to 3500, and you should be good.

run a couple of speed tests in a row, your upload speed could be dropping causing your stream quality to drop or cut out. Also when streaming try to have a wired connection to the router and make sure all bandwidth hungry programs like torrents are stopped.
