    you might as well upgrade everything.....

    your going to need

    a mid range dual core processor

    a new motherboard most likely

    2 gigs of RAM

    and a new 650W+ power supply unit



    that is if you want a video card like the 8800 gt

    Yeah in my opinion you're better off buying a low end computer, if you're willing to shell out the extra cash, for like $400-500.
