Hiya folks. I have built this PC here up so far, I'm just missing a graphics card. (Also this is my first post in this section so if I do something wrong or leave something out, forgive me.)
One thing I can't see this program picking up is my PSU, which is a Corsair 500W CX V2. Anyways, I'm here in the UK, with a budget of about £170 pound, and I am looking for a graphics card that will go well with this computer, but will also last me for some time. I'm a complete newbie to building computers in general, and I have had help with a friend with building this one. I did have a graphics card before, but it was kinda weak, and it kinda... died. Anyways, what I'm currently eyeing up is this:

But I have fears about how well it would actually work. My PSU does meet the minimum, but I worry how it would perform along side the rest of my hardware. I would like some opinions and recommendations on how I should go about this. Thankye.
At the resolution monitor you have, you could max out BF3 with an HD 7770. If you get a 560 Ti, it'll be godly. The 560 Ti will run on 500w so don't worry about that, and your CPU is decent enough, it won't bottleneck too much. But definitely down the line I'd recommend upgrading the mobo/cpu and monitor.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking about upgrading the Hard drive after this. But yeah I'm surprised my CPU could actually bottleneck my performance. It's been amazing with everything so far!
