I need a new graphics card, and tech advice

I currently have this

http://computermonitors.productwiki.com/acer-h233h/ (Monitor, not sure if it's matters, but hey.)

The website reccomends at least the GeForce GTX 560, but I was leaning toward the 2.5g 570.
Is there anything I may need to add on to my computer if I'd like to use the 570( Like RAM or an HDMI cable)
or should I go with another option?
(Graphics upgrade wanted to play games like Max Payne or BF with high res and little/no lag.)

7850 sounds like a good way to go.

That 550 is going to hold back games like BF3 regardless... Ever since the update I seem to be getting closer to mid-50's in framerates on my computer

And anything more than the 560 and you may have some bottlenecking (not to mention the 570 would probably be a bit big for your computer)
