What upgrade would benefit me most?

Here's my current system specs:
OS - Windows XP Home
MB - Gigabyte 965P-DS3 (supports quad-core and FSB 1333 mhz processors)
Processor - Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz
Memory - 4GB Corsair Dual Channel DDR2 800 (yes I know I am only benefiting from 3GB with XP, but I got the second set of 1GB sticks for <$50)
Video - e-GeForce 7900 GS KO 256MB (was pretty good when I built this pc)
PSU - Coolmax 750W
I built this pc a little over 1 year ago. I bought everything from Newegg, and would like to continue that trend.
I am currently playing AoC and was wondering what would be the best upgrade for me atm. With gas prices like they are I can't really spend a whole lot of cash at once, so I will be replacing 1 piece at a time.
Recommendations for which video card/processor/etc, would be much appreciated as well.

dont do any upgrade.. it waste money..
it will be good to update if your video card still 6600 series.. but 7900 that is fast enough. Your have enough ram.. etc.. overall nothing to upgrade..
a better heatsink on your processor and take that puppy up to 3 ghz
swap the video card for an 8800 series, 256mb of video memory just doesn't cut it anymore.

No kidding. I remember the good ol' days of 8MB of video memory being enough.
Decided to do just that. Bought a Zalman 9500, Arctic Silver 5, and an 8800 GT 512mb. Total came out to $253 on newegg. Now to wait until Wednesday before they arrive.
