You may want to bump up your RAM to 1.5GB or 2GB...some of the newer games are big time memory hogs.
Is the 70GB HDD big enough for all your data now?  Cricket

You will also want to have the updated drivers etc for running the newest games, I also back up Cricket, you might want to invest in a second hard drive, maybe a SATA, to store game files etc, but if you have 30 or 40 gb free hard drive you'll be fine.

The new "Bang for the Buck" grahics card is the ATI X800XL which I think you can get for about $300. If you can afford it, that'll definitely help a lot. Also, you should try to overclock that 2.8Ghz P4. They're supposed to be great overclockers. Even at a safe 10% OC, you'll be running at 3080Mhz.
