between radeon 6850 and 550ti, i'd pick 6850. it's a much better and powerful card imo.
try getting 4-8 gb ddr3 1333 or 1600 ram since you're using an h67 motherboard.
sandy bridge supports 1.5v ddr3 1333 ram. iirc only p67 and z68 boards allow ram oc and higher speed ram.

Also check if you can not get hold of a GTX 460. They are cheaper that 550Ti and the perform way better.
