You are better of with HD4850 GTS250 or HD5750 than the HD4860. Here is a review to confirm that http://en.inpai.com.cn/doc/enshowcont.asp?id=6829

If all your going to do is game, then don't waste cash on a weak quad, just get a 720 and overclock it if you want to. I wouldn't go with a Cooler Master psu, try Antec, Corsair, or OCZ. Here:

are those graphics cards compatible with my motherboard :/ ? but thanks for the help so far,ive changed my processor to the 720 triple core which was a good idea and im looking for a new PSU atm. but the graphics card is what im worried about mostly

Yes your gpu will go with your motherboard. But, I don't think you psu has two 6pin connectors for the gpu: System Requirements 500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors recommended (600 Watt and four 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX technology in dual mode)

5750

The GTS 250 is stronger than a 5750:

And at idle, the 250 only sips energy:

That case is excellent. Alot of veteran members on this forum use that case for there own rigs. It has great airflow and is from a top of the line brand, so the build quality is top notch. If you can get it, get it.
