Upgrade advice please

Hi,

I've currently got the following and looking to see where approx £150 would be best spent.

19" acer widescreen.
4 GB RAM.
2x 250GB HD.
X1800 XT 256MB.
3500+ AM2.
Asus AM2 mobo.

Would I be better upgrading the mobo and cpu to a dual core or would I be better getting a new graphics card?

Performance on Vista seems fine, I'm just looking to beef it up a bit for some newer games etc.

Thanks,

Brian,

Thanks for the advice. I'm just home and had a look to see what motherboard I have. It turns out to be the ASUS M2NPV-VM. Is this compatible with the chips mentioned so far? Also, am I likely to see a great deal of difference for the £150 spent?

Cheers,

Brian.

Thanks for all the advice, I don't mind spending the £165 if it's worth it.

Cheers again.
