Upgrading
Hey guys right now i have o 17 inch[i think] monitor and i will change it for a full hd monitor.
But when i will get it should i change my gpu from 5450 to a gtx or 6k/5k series ati.
And what kind of gpu suggest me [a good one] that works maximum with 1, 6 pin connector cuz thats the only connector i have.
Get a NVIDIA video card. Get a 460 (uses two 6 pin connectors).

Dunno about amd processors, so I can't help you there.

AMD processors are horrible... They have incredibly low benchmarks and burn up within a year...
500 wat psu

You probably shouldnt have to upgrade anything if you are just getting a new monitor. afaik the 5450 is perfectly capable of going to 1920x1080, but I cant speak for performance in games at that reso.

The 5770 seems like a pretty good launching point for a new one though. You cant look for getting anything too powerful with a 500w PSU. Keep in mind it has to run everything else in your computer too.

I have three computers in this house that would like to have a word with you. Specifically an old system with a 3500+ that still plays new gen games.
Thats my problem, i want to play games on max res and max quality without lag. Gtx 550 it can run even on a 400w psu with one 6 pin connector.

My Athlon can't talk, so...
And I prefer Intel, wayyy better...
@DJ Delko

If you want an AMD cpu and gpu, aim for cheaper stuff unless you can beef up the PSU.
You should get an AMD 6770, its a good value for money.
i decide i will get gtx 550 if i have more money i would get a psu to
