I want to upgrade the main PC in my sig, Ive been thinking about the following

9600GT to EVGA or XFX 9800GT, they go for about the same price on eBay, £20 difference on average, is it worth it?

I have a Micro ATX Case, can I use any PSU?, can you reccomend a decent one that is futureproof (550w or above would be best) with black mesh around the cables to keep it neat, modular would be even better but there normally more than £50

Generic 2x1Gb to OCZ Gold 2x2GB http://www.ebuyer.com/product/146049 - £35 take away the £15- £20 ill get for the generic ram on eBay.

Also possibly a Sony BDU-X10S Blu Ray Drive - £50

Can you answer my question about the PSU and possibly make suggestions about how to improve the upgrade without spending much more

Thanks
 
What size of monitor are you using, if its a 19" it is worthless upgrade, 22" if you are willing to overclock your card.

Memory upgrade will help alot.

Great budget powersupply are either Xigmatech, Corsair and BFG LS series.

LG blu ray roms are better than the sony.
 
1) That depends WHAT case you have. mATX comes in different flavors.
2) Video card depends on what games you play. A 9600GT overclocked will match a 8800GT. Either way, an "upgrade" to a 8800GT is hardly a upgrade.
