Make sure to revisit videocard prices. For example, both the 265 and the 270 are faster than 750Ti. However, keep track of 270X/280 prices too. Also, make sure if you buy the 750Ti, you don't spend more than $125 in it because otherwise 265/270 are much better for gaming. Also, I suggest you get a 550W PSU minimum. Otherwise you will be upgrading the PSU every 5 years. Might as well spend the extra $20-30 now and get a solid 650W or something. A good PSU will last 7-10 years (more unless you run out of power room which requires you to upgrade).
