what kinds of games do you want to be playing and do you care about settings for high quality or high fps?, dont go for the 550 ti, the 6850 is a WAY better deal at that price point, but, like i said it depends on what kinds of games you want, not to mention bottlenecking may occur because of your processor, also, note that its highly likely you will need a better psu no matter what, because first of all, its probably possible to get a 550 ti to run on a 300w psu, but i wouldnt recommend it as you could ruin a lot of stuff, but most 300w psu's dont have the pin connectors necessary for graphics cards for gaming, so you will need to get a new psu no matter what i would say, go for about 460W-500W range

this is the cheapest 6850 i found with a rebate its $125:
