I wasn't really sure where to post this, but I was hoping you guys could help me out. I'm looking to upgrade my computer to make it perform faster (mainly for gaming and such)

I'm willing to spend something within the $200 to $300 range or less. My specs are:

Operating System
MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Core i7 2600 @ 3.40GHz
Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
RAM
12.0 GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
Dell Inc. 0Y2MRG (CPU 1)
Graphics
S230HL (1920x1080@60Hz)
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750
Hard Drives
977GB Seagate ST31000528AS (SATA)
Optical Drives
PLDS DVD+-RW DH-16ABS

Links to some things I could buy that would be compatible with my computer would be appreciated :) I just upgraded my graphics card, so I don't need to buy anything like that at the moment.

Considering it's a Dell PC, if you want to upgrade the GPU, you'll also need to upgrade the PSU. Look to spend about $70 for a solid PSU. Other than that, I agree with previous posts. Save money to buy a 970 GTX.
