http://www.microcenter.com/single_pr...spx?sku=198770 for 134.99 or 115.96 for an open box version. You really can't go wrong with the 7770 especially since it's an Asus(best in the biz). I run my 7770 on max settings with no hiccups.

It is not as fast as the Nvidia card, then again I have zero slowdown with that card. I have both Nvidia and ATI cards so i'm not some fanboy, just saying for the price and speed you can't beat it.

http://www.hwcompare.com/14810/gefor...adeon-hd-7770/ That 760 is more modern, more bang for the buck, more future proof, and quite literally over twice as powerful. Also, yes to that SSD. Say hello to sub ten second startups, instant loading screens etc. |

well, RAM is cheap.. you should upgrade it since you are doing everything else.
Also, if you can find a refurb 500 mb/sec-ish SSD for cheap you wont regret it. make sure your power supply can handle the new graphics card as well. |

Yup pay attention to this, you never know when the next Fire in a ram factory to double prices will happen.

No you will need a really good 450 or higher. I would go with Antec.

Yes and I would probably go with a 500 watt or higher..Depends on the brand some of them say 600 watt but they are crap. Also I don't own a Corsair but I've been reading a lot of good reviews on them.
