I'm planning on getting the sapphire 7950. I just want to make sure everything I have will be compatible..? I know my power supply should be/cpu but just making sure. (reason being my fps sucks with my 6850 no matter what I do)

CPU : Intel Core i5 650 @ 3.20HGz
Motherboard : ASUSTeK P7P55 LX
Memory : DDR3 / 8gb
Power : Thermaltake Smart SP-530P 530W ATX 12V 2.3 80

I also have to update my case;
Anything there that would also need a bit of upgrading? The graphics card and case is going to be nearly 400$ so I don't want to be spending money on things that don't quite need it.
Thanks in advanced.

You are good to go in any way. :)

38A on your 12V rail will be enough for this GPU, and every other component is compatible.
