Let's say i have an Dell Optiplex 755. I want to upgrade several things on that computer. The CPU is fine. I plan on buying a Radeon 6570. This one to be exact.

As you can see, it uses a PCI express x 16 slot, so it should be fine.
I also want to upgrade the RAM to 8 GB. However I don't know which kind of ram stick to buy, also, i don't know how many RAM slots are available.
I also want to upgrade the hard drive to 250 GB. Once again, i don't know which hard drive to buy.
Lastly, is the power supply. It's kinda obvious a need to upgrade the power supply. However, what would be a safe amount?
P.S The dell optiplex is a small form factor(SFF)
I want to use this computer for games.
I am willing to spend up to $250
The current cpu is a Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 Ghz
