My system:

Motherboard: Gigabyte G41MT-S2P - hope the pcie slot would work:

CPU: Intel pentium dual core E5700 3GHz (OCed to 3.4 without stability issues)
RAM: 2x 2Gb 1333Mhz
OS: Win 7 64bit
450W PSU !with no 6 pin connector! Image here:

I'm looking for a fast answer as I would like to buy the thing in 5 days maximum (good discount) preferably. I don't have a huge budget, as you can see from my GPU choice - The MSI 750TI OC Twin Frozr. I just hope it would work, and it it will, do you think my PC could run the recent games at least on med setting, don't really need the high and ultra crap if the story is good.

The PSU will work but it's really bad quality. My advice is to get the GPU and then get a better PSU from XFX before upgrading the RAM or anything else for that matter.

Yes, it will fit in your motherboard, but I'm not too sure about the PSU. Yes, it should run it with a molex>PCIe power adaptor, but I wouldn't count on it. My advice: Get the GPU you were going to and upgrade the PSU to a 80+ bronze 450/550W XFX when you have the money.

That MSI one is supposed to go well without connectors, that's why I thought of it - so, will the PSU work then? Also, do you think I should upgrade the ram? Most I can do is 6 GB (2gb + 4gb with a minor penalty to performance afaik) at the moment.

Well XFX is made by Seasonic, so if you can find those, get one of them. The problem with cheaper Corsair PSUs is the poor quality of the capacitors that causes them to fail more often than others. If you do decide to take the Corsair route, get at least 500W so you won't be running on a high load.

Guess I'll go with a 550W corsair - the only seasonic PSUs Ican find are 1000W and thus are ~50% more expensive than the 750 ti itself...

Yes, it should do. I don't think you should get a 270X since the rest of your build would form a big bottleneck and you wouldn't get much of an increase in performance compared to the 750Ti.

Guess I'll get the PSU, 750 and 8 gb in dual channel ram... Thank you very much for the answers - topic can be closed.
