I'll take that GTS 250 off your hands if ya do

Looking at your specs, you'll need a bigger PSU if you do get a 480. Also not sure if your Q6600 & 800Mhz would bottle neck a 480. Plus your monitor has a max of 1440x900 res, an 480 would be overkill on such small-ish res.

Ah, what exactly is an uperblly? - Do you mean superbly, or very well? :huh:

You'd definitely need a bigger and better quality PSU.

As Joshatdot mentioned, at that resolution - a 480 is massive overkill.

If you want to get a DX11 nvidia card - the new gtx 460 1GB should be perfect for your needs.
