I wouldn't waste my time, that GTX 570 is over four years old and couldn't handle any modern titles. The system as well is very low end and very old (the CPu was released 6 years ago!!! and even Intel says it is End of Life http://ark.intel.com/products/37212/Intel-Pentium-Processor-E5200-2M-Cache-2_50-GHz-800-MHz-FSB) . It honestly wouldn't be cost-effective (your wasting money) trying to piece meal add ons that really offer no benefit.

You would be better suited (assuming this is for gaming) to just get a new PC, a i5 desktop can be had for $349 (www.slickdeals.net) then throw in a Nvidia 750Ti (uses only 300w) for around $120 (www.pcpartpicker.com) and would tons better then that. IF your trying to stick to only $100 or $200 Gaming...

IF your trying to stick to only $100 or $200 Gaming PC, dont' waste the money, you would be MUCH better to just buy a Console (PS3 / XBox 360) for $149 which lasts 10 years and still plays modern titles otu there.
