Current Specs:
i3-2100
ASUS H61M Micro-Atx
Coolermaster Elite 120 Case
4gb Hyper Blu RAM
Asus 5770 (probably already upgrading to 750 ti FTW)
Lite-On iHas224b (Keeping this but putting it in anyway)
1 TB 7200rpm Hard Drive (Not looking to upgrade)
60gb Solid State Drive (given lowest price for 128gb will be considered)
PSU is some 500w but it has terrible cables so I am looking for a good 430w/500w PSU

Upgrade Specs (are they any good?):http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3JpsMp

that CPU wont work on your motherboard its lga 1150 your motherboard is lga 1155 and also your cpu is an i3 even tho its older its still a tier better than the one you want. i say just sink all of your money into gtx 970 or wait for gtx 960(rumored to come out next month) so your cpu doesn't bottleneck. and ram speed doesn't really matter much just get 2nd stick of same ram if you can find it it will be cheaper that way. as far as power supply get this http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1650snlb... currently its same price as the 550Watt thats the only reason i put in the 650 watt one.
