It is very hard to answer your question without getting the specs of that motherboard and how high a tdp cpu it will accept. I searched for it and only found asian websites with no english.
The best cpu you could get without overclocking would be the Phenom x4 9950. However, that has a tdp of 125w so I would try to get some sort of info on that motherboard first.
A Phenom x3 8750 is another option. It has a 95w tdp.
There are other options, like the Athlon 64 x2 6400+, but again, 125w tdp...
More RAM of the same specs would help you as well. Make sure they are the same in all areas or get a new kit altogether.
Regarding the graphics card...I don't know if I would put that card in with that power supply. It looks a little weak to me.
A GTX 750 might be your best way if you plan on keeping the old rig running, paired with more ram and an upgraded cpu.
Of course, the best option would be a whole new rig, but if that isn't possible, I suggest the above solutions. I do have some sympathies with you because I, too, enjoy keeping these old rigs running and using them as daily drivers when possible. Just try to get more info on that motherboard if you can.
