Could someone please look at the following and tell me if i am doing a good decision?

My current setup is:

Asus Crosshair Motherboard
BFG 8800 GT OC2
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2 DHX PC2-6400C4DHX TwinX
Corsair 1GB DDR2 XMS2-6400C4 TwinX
(A total of 3g ram)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5200 2.70GHz (Overclocked to 2.86)
Seasonic S12 600W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply

Now i was thinking about getting a GTX 260 from BFG (This one https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-079-BG ), and possibly a new case (because the one i have is hanging on tape). That is, unless i dont need to upgrade any of the other components (as to not have a bottleneck), i was thinking the cpu maybe?

Thanks for reading (and sorry about my extensive use of brackets).

I wont upgrade now in your place, but if you really want to
First upgrade your CPU, don't go 4 less than Phenom II, no point. Then the Ram and then the VGA card. If you want grate cheap case get the RC-690.
