Thank you, I will look at those. Another question I have is whether it's a worthwhile extra $170 to go from this

to what you posted.
 
I am going to assume you have a Pentium B series or i3 2XXX series. Yes, it will be quite an upgrade, and those processors are a nice match to those GPUs.
 
With the 550, would I be able to play Star Wars: The Old Republic on high settings with a decent fps? With my integrated graphics I have a low fps on lowest settings...Some of the features on the integrated seem higher than that 550 is that true? I.E
Core Clock 850 MHz vs. 1100 MHz on the built in graphics. Finally, would 250W be able to support the 550?

no to the 250w with a 550, and it's almost guaranteed from a crap brand, so that would fry your computer. for the clocks, idk if your numbers are right, and if they are, the architecture of the gpu (cpu of a graphics card basically) is much better with the 550, plus it has a crap load more cores, higher bus speeds so more information passes through at a time, and a ton of other little parts the integrated crap doesn't have. so it's like comparing a 3ghz pentium 4 to a i7 3930k downclocked to 2ghz, the i7 would kill it in every single way.
