Depending on what you have for a CPU now, a CPU upgrade is one thought.
If in to gaming, a video card would be a great up grade.

Your motherboard supports dual cores, but finding dual core 939's is getting rough over here - don't know about where you are. Vista should run fine on a X700 - and on that 3200+. If you are a gamer, I'd wait till DX10 cards are out before upgrading the video.
