Hey guys, I'm looking forward to upgrading my 3 years old budget computer.
I'm pretty newb in this area, so I have some questions regarding this subject :D

I'm looking at the MSI GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST Twin Frozr 3 OC - 2 GB GDDR5 for 172€, is it a good deal considering the price? Secondly, I'm not sure if it is compatible with my mobo - ASUS M4A88TD-M EVO, and thirdly, as for the PSU, I'm going for the Corsair GS700. Good deal, or I can get better with my ~250€ budget?

Thanks

If I were you, I would recommend getting this card http://
Cheaper and is more powerful, as this card competes with the 660.
The MoBo is compatible, yes.
Lastly, 700W is a bit overkill for your gaming, unless you want to Crossfire/SLI some cards in the future, among other upgrades. This 600W PSU http:// should do you good. You would probably only need 500-550W at absolute maximum, so the 600W is if you want to upgrade your CPU or GPU in the future.
