Then just get a vid card. Since you are on a budget, I would get a GOOD vid card, like a GTX 970....then when next upgrade time comes, you won't need a new vid card...just the rest of the comp. ;)

Is it really needed to use DBAN to wipe my HDD even if I reuse it for a clean win7 ?

actually if you got a new cooler + overclocked that cpu, then got a 970 or waited for the gtx 960 etc, you'd be totally fine
the i5-750 still has higher single threaded performance than the 8320, meaning bottlenecks are less likely. especially if you overclock.
