using alot of the componets you have on your current computer you can upgrade for not a whole lot. I would only need to to get new motherboard, processor and graphics card though i would want to upgrade my slow ass ram. I can still use my hard and optical drives and sound card no problem.

MSI Computers - P6N SLI Platinum Motherboard - P6NSLIPLATINUM
Intel Computers - Core 2 Duo E6550 Dual Core Processor - BX80557E6550
BFG Technologies Computers - GeForce 8800GTS Video Card - BFGR88320GTSOCE
and if i really wanted to
Seasonic Computers - S12 Energy+ 650W SLI EPS Power Supply - SS650HT for when i get another GPU
Patriot Memory Computers - 2GB PC2-6400 DDR2 DIMM Memory Kit - PDC22G6400LLK awesome and cheap ram
Zalman Computers - CNPS9500 LED CPU Cooler - CNPS9500LED to overclock that C2D.


These new intel chips are incredible. They run on less power which means less heat which means serious overclocking. You can get the cheap chip and OC it to speeds that other chips that are hundreds of bucks more. Go intel. and the new 8xxx series cards kick ass and are also easily overclockable and two of them wont cost you 3 arms and a leg
