How should I decrease the price on this build?

My current build in mind: http://pcpartpicker.com/ca/p/dTTI

It seems as if this is my favourite forum to go to whenever I need parts advice, hah. Anywho, I didn't include the storage because I have a spare SSD laying around somewhere. In terms of GPU, I don't know much about them, so how does it match up against my current HD5770? Those are all prices in Canadian dollars, if I really had to, I'll buy them off of US websites and use a service to pick it up from the border, haha.

You can decrease the price by going for a 600W unit for the PSU such as the CX 600 over the 750W unit which would be overkill. Even a 500w unit such as the CX500 would be enough.

You should also get an HD 6850 over the 550 Ti, faster and about the same cost.

I think you should get a better case too, Antec 300 is old, the Corsair Carbide 300R is much better and about the same sort of price.
 
If you want to it to be more future proof get a 6870 or a 6950 or a 7850, any of those will still work with the 600W PSU.
