This is what I would upgrade. Also I would not use that PSU, it's not even 80+ and could kill your computer.

Hey guyz, i have a 5 year old rig and need to know if i can do some upgrades to game in high settings 1080p or should i buy a new one with the thought of 1440p gaming in the future(always on a budget. The hardware i intent to keep from this current built, if possible, is:  

CPU: Intel core i5 2320: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115091

MoBo:Turbo-X H61M: http://www.plaisio.gr/anavathmisi-diktia/anavathmisi/motherboard-mitrikes/Turbo-X-H61M-HDMI-s-1155-DDR3-H61-H61M-HDMI.htm

PSU: Turbo-X 550W: http://www.plaisio.gr/anavathmisi-diktia/anavathmisi/psu-trofodotika/Turbo-X-550W-Value-Series-II.htm

also hdd which is 1TB no problems with that and  cooler which i can seem to find right now cause i am not sitting near that built right now. everything else is pretty much for upgrade. i have 2x2gb ddr3 ram 1333mhz and an AMD radeon 6770HD those are what i would like to replace. Thank you for your time in advance and lastly the budget i am going for is 250 euros.

it seems good but i think the mobo only supports ram @ 1333mhz but other than that i agree on the psu part and thanks!!

also will this support the AAA titles @1080p for a good period of time?
