What should i upgrade my GPU to?

i want to upgrade my gpu to play games better but don't know what to upgrade to. I currently have an 8600gt and was debating between the gts 250 or the gtx 550 ti. I know those are completely different but those are my choices. I want to be able to run computer only games(slender, company of heroes, day z, minecraft, new sims city) because i already have a ps3. Would the gts 250 run those games well enough or should I get the 550 ti. PS, i have a mini atx motherboard and my case is very small (Im hoping to upgrade that in the next few months)

    definitely get the 550 ti

    the gts 250 is outdated and will have to play those games with only directx9 and at lowered settings and resolutions

    Get a Diamond AMD Radeon HD 7850. Its near the top of the benchmark charts with the $300+ gpus and its only $189. See for yourself at the link.
