Right now I have a ati 2400 hd pro and I think this would be a huge upgrade!

Well, it would be a decent upgrade, and it does appear to have good ratings, aside from the fact that it's only rated by 2 people at this point in time.

Does your previous card have a fan? I've noticed that frequently on cards with heatsinks it's very important that your case has good airflow, as the lack of a fan on modern GPUs can generate good amounts of heat if there is not the proper air-flow in your case. This probably won't be a big issue though.

Aside from that, just make sure that everything is compatible, sometimes for upgrades like these may require more power from your PSU.

That's defidently a step up but still not too great, here's what I would suggest.

don't get 5750, for sure your cpu is already old.

Get sapphire 5570 , its $54 after mir in newegg. Its much better than a 5450.

Edit: I got one of these, I know my pc is bottlenecking on it but I love it!

Don't bottleneck your computer with that card. Get a lower price-based card that will work efficiently with your CPU.

I would not spend that much on one get a low priced one which will do great on your CPU

And just a side note, I have had bad experiences with CompUSA. I primarily deal with Newegg, with the on-occasion transaction with Tiger and have had good luck so far.
