With those specs any upgrade would be used to give you more time while you save for a new computer.
A video card like this one : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102871 is the limit your power supply can handle. The graphics card can be carried over as replacement in the new build or used as a place holder if you decide to get a major gaming card for that build later on. So it would have two uses for you, improved performance now and decent use later. Given XP's 32 bit limit for handling ram there would be no point in your adding more to the rig.
