The 7750 would bottleneck that card but hey it is a better card than the 9800GT and you can get a newer chip later

The 7750+ would probably bottleneck most of today's cards to some extent. I'd also assume your motherboard could do with an update to get the most of a new GPU (as I'm assuming the M/B is a few years old and bought at the same time as the CPU).

Maybe look at a 460 1GB or something with option to go SLI down the line?

I agree the gtx 460 1gb is a pretty fast card and you can find it for dirt cheap these days. Also you should think about upgrading your cpu and mobo. Intel sandy bridge is really fast.
