Hi,

recently I have purchased a dell vostro 470 pc:
i7 3770k
12gb DDR 3 1600mhz ram
Corsair CX 550 PSU
GT 620 1gb Video Card
seagate momentus xt 500gb HDD
HP 2509m monitor (1920x1080)

as you can see I don't have a decent video card. I'm thinking of getting a better one, but the thing is I'm not really a pc gamer, so I'm not if I need to upgrade. I mainly use my pc for video playback (mkv, 720p and 1080p), some programming/photoshop. I was told the HD 6670 and HD 7750 are the best I can get for $50 or $500. Please advise if I should upgrade my video card

Given the uses you have listed, I don't really see any advantage to upgrading your GPU. It should be fine for your needs. Are there specific problems that you feel make an upgrade necessary?
