Depends, exactly what do you do with your PC ?  Do you use HT apps ?  Or just basic desktop work and gaming ?  What resolution do you want to play at what frame rates do you want ?  Also I wouldn't upgrade the video card however it all depends on your desires.

Nice one,  I think things cost a lot in Sweden just like in Europe or different countries.  Even Canada...  Tell us in US dollar what your budget it ?  Im to lazy,, sighs.  Also don't forget you need to flash the 450 so it works with your CPU.  You should have a flash button behind your motherboard.

An upgrade does not necessarily have to be very expensive or with the latest technlogy that exists, for example if you decide to use Intel, use CPUs of the eighth generation onwards that literally are all 4 cores instead of just 2 as previous generations except a couple of options for laptop and from that point on all generations are only 4, 6 and 8 cores. Maybe I don't need to to say it but 4 is better than 2...
