My Computer Sepcs:
My PC Specs:
Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K Overclocked @ 3.3Ghz
Memory: 4GB RAM.
Card name: EVGA GeForce GTX 660 Ti @ 915 MHz.
Motherboard: MSI Z68A-G43 (G3)
CPU cooler: Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro V2
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 500GB
PSU: Corsair CP-9020063-UK
Case: Zalman Z11 Plus
DVD/RW: Samsung SH-224BB/BEBE

I was thinking about buying a second gtx 660ti or selling that one and upgrading to a gtx 680 or hd 7970.

I could sell it for 210 add that to the budget if you upgrading the graphics card.

Budget:400
Budget:600

If I were you I would purchase 128GB Samsung 840 pro for your build, SSD's are just pure amazement. If your PC is a gamin PC which it looks like you will be running out of HDD space in no time bud, I think you ought to buy 1TB or 2TB.

Also maybe get another 4GB of ram? Make sure it's the same brand/model.

If I were you, I wouldn't change the cpu. Upgrade to 8gb ram, get a 1tb 7200rpm hdd for general storage and buy an SSD to install your OS on.
