If you are looking for the best bang for the buck in 1080P full-screen gaming, then i would certainly do the following:
1. Upgrade ram to at least 12Gb DDR 3
2. Upgrade GPU to a AMD Radeon R9 270X
3. If your CPU supports integrated Graphics, disabled it it Device manager/graphics adapters (only do this once you have a Dedicated GPU)
correction
8gb ram
270x or gtx760 (donot be biased)
donot disable integrated gpu if you have it.. it may use the dedicated gpu for screen rendering which increases power consumption
That seems fair but now that i think of it, a better processor may be needed with a GPU like any of the above, i don't know about you but a new PC entirely may be worth it...Before you know windows 7 is going obsolete!
And Blacksheep, i did not mention the 760 because No offense but NVIDIA tends of over price there gpus...
Amd's best GPU is 2 times better than NVIDIA and Costs Half as much.
