This information I got was from dxdiag. If any more info is needed please tell me.
I have been looking at a few graphics cards :Inno3D GeForce GTX 650TI Boost iChill Herculez 2000 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

KFA2 GeForce GTX 660 EX OC 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card with a free copy of 3DMark advanced edition

If someone could tell me if my components are compatible and if not what components you recommend that are great 'bang for you buck'
~~ I already have got a bigger case ~~
 
Welcome...

That dxdiag helped a bit but not much. :D

You say you have a new case, what is it?

The main issue may be if the motherboard will fit in the case.. Do you know whether it's ATX, mATX or ITX?

Sometimes manufactures like that have odd sized motherboards (BTX) which may not fit in standard cases..

How much do you have to spend on your GPU/PSU upgrade?
 
I'm not sure if this is the infomation, but used program called AIDA64 to get this much. Please let me know if it is enough
