My PC draws very little atm I'd say so I think I'd be ok with those wouldn't I? Is there anything I could get that would be better for cheaper? Or maybe a different graphics card with Black Ops?

Solitaire

Depends mostly on your max monitor resolution, although the HD5750 would probably be fine with 99% of what you throw at it if the monitor maxes out below 1080p

ATM I have a 21" crt monitor (In black :rolleyes:) that I want to upgrade. If I am going to get a new monitor, I'd like it to be at least 1920 x 1080. Is there any card that would be better if I spent a little more?

Solitaire

Loads. If you want to play at 1080p the cheapest you can go without sacrificing too much is the HD5770 1GB. If you want to spend a little more there's also the GTX460 and the HD6850, but a dual-core CPU may bottleneck some games a little
