Sorry should have said got those bits already. Is it worth going for the 7750 2gb model or the one I have chosen. I am thinking the one I have chosen will be better but want opinions if pos?

Mainly DC universe. Want to get back into first person shoot em up games again, and some racing games. My previous graphics card was a 4850 so anything is an improvement on that. What card would you go for as cash is a bit tight? Also psu... worth going for the corsair 430 instead of the ocz one?

Thanks all, I have swapped the msi board for the gigabyte board. Always had gigabyte boards just liked the look of the msi but wasn't 100% sure as like i say always had gigabyte. Would prefer new just as I am not allowed to spend money often (wife) so would prefer to buy new just for warranty and new stuff in boxes etc.. Stupid I know but my old system was a core 2 duo with a 4850 so this has to be a massive upgrade from that.
