Advice on my setup - what games can I run, should I upgrade it any more?

Hey, I have a 3 year old Evesham desktop I have upgraded, I am curious as to what games I can run, and if it is still worth upgrading it anymore..

Spec:

- Single Core Intel 3.2Ghz

- Intel 915P/G express chipset based combo motherboard. (That's roughly what it says on the manual)

- NVIDIA Gainward overclocked 7600 GT (upgraded from a 6600GT)

- 2 gig of DDR2 RAM I got from OcUK, I think it was the Geil that was advertised loads? (upgraded from 1 gig of DDR)

All on WinXP media centre.

- I know it's not a great setup, and am pretty sure it wouldn't handle Crysis, but can I buy COD4? Assassin's Creed? Would they run ok on lower settings?

- Also is there much point in upgrading any of the components for the cash, or is the next thing a completely new rig?

Thanks!
 
So to confirm -

- I can still run any game out to a reasonable level
- You are suggesting spending just over £100 on an 8800GT is still worth it, I will get good gains for the money? Think I have a 300 or 350W PSU
