I've had a lightscribe burner for like 8 years now and never have actually used it. I even the bought the disks for it but just ended up writing with marker like always .

So, could someone check my list I'd be really grateful

That power supply is a piece of sh*t. It's dual rails, the brand is subpar, it doesn't even SAY the amperage on the 12V, 5V, or 3.3V rails.

The graphics card doesn't support DirectX11

So, new gfx and psu

Any suggestions? Bear in mind I'm not looking for high price parts,

CORSAIR 550W PSU will be more than enough - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6817139004

You could try finding that on some European store.

For the graphics card a GeForce GT 240 512mb will be actually quite a bit better than the Radeon HD 4670.

You can get it for around $80 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814150475

What would be classified as a good PSU? I have never bought a PSU before, all the cases I have bought have already had them installed


Also, should I go for nVidia or ATI?

(specifically:
ATI: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/199429

or nVidia: http://www.ebuyer.com/product/179746
)

hmmm

If your willing to pay more. Nvidia, if your looking for bang for you buck, ATI.

That nVidia card is better. ATI isn't so much about bang for the buck anymore, don't forget that ATI still has the best cards on the market.

You can find a list of tiered PSUs here:
