PC Part Picker isn't perfect, but for the US, it's usually right. It's almost always wrong, in my experience, when talking about anything in Europe or Canada.

If you mean upgrade as in upgrading the processor, then yes otherwise I don't plan on upgrading anything else

well the graphics card is what makes GAMES run smooth ... the rest of your pc is already very quick. the only thing that can make general computer use smother is by adding an ssd 

[cafe]

1. add a cooler dude

2. a 3570k isn't much more 

3. save up more money because all you are doing is limiting yourself

4. you cant even overclock, you will eventually want to do some of that to keep up

5. if you want to save money make an amd build! intel just limits you the lower in price you go

I will think about the cooler, but not a big fan of AMD.
