I never thought that it would be this difficult to upgrade your computer. Perhaps its because I dont have much knowledge about computers...Well anyways, I have around $400 to spend, nothing more. I wanted to get some parts for my pc so it can at least be able to play some sort of game!..Yeah it's truly that terrible, here let me show you which motherboard I have
HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - Motherboard Specifications, 945GCT-HM (Livermore)
Yes it's crap, I know that much. But yeah, I plan on buying a BFG Geforce 8800 GT OC for $200 (not sure if thats a good deal or not...) ...and some RAM since im stuck with only 512mb right now. Would getting 2GB be sufficient for the video card? Also I plan on buying a new psu, are any recommended? Btw I cant use Newegg, unfortunately they dont ship to Canada..
And yeah...do I also have to buy a new motherboard and CPU? I really hope not. If its really required, which ones? Please, nothing too expensive though.

Any help is appreciated!
Oooh btw i plan on playing games like Aion...simcity societies...and some others similar to those. I dont intend on playing games such as Crysis and what not.
