You can overclock the graphics card too, but you really won't see a benefit on that card.
It's not a gaming card now, and no overclock you manage to get stable on it will make it a gaming card by any stretch of the imagination.

What games are you going to play? Might want to check out Newegg. They have some good stuff there for the price you wanted, but maybe Calum can help you with the specifics  :)

You're playing Crysis with your current setup?  Wow ...
Anyway, for that budget you can get (in order of decreasing performance) - a 4850, 9800GT, 5670, GT240, or 4670.  All are capable of light to "medium" gaming.  For reference, I had an 8800GT (same as the 9800GT) and Crysis was playable on high settings, 1440x900 resolution, with an E8200.
Hope this helps.

Well, sure, I'd imagine you could probably play at very low resolution and all lowest settings ... but, that's not "playing" Crysis.

Well, playing a game that's one of the best looking games out on all low settings isn't exactly satisying, at least not for me.  If you're OK with it, there's no need to upgrade.
To play Crysis with everything maxed, smoothly, isn't something that can be done as far as I know, not with today's technology.
Grabbing one of the better cards I listed, the 4850 or 9800GT, should let you play on mostly high settings.

it increases the replay value... you beat it once on low graphics, then when you upgrade your system at some later time you revisit the game again. I did this with a lot of games.
I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.
