How can I upgrade this PC a bit. I have a $700 budget. I would have more but I want 150 at least for my monitor because my current one is a 15" pos. I was thinking along the lines of the gfx card/mobo or something. Thoughts anyone? Current cost is listed at the end.

If you can spare the extra money Id up for the AMD 955 BE (with C3 stepping), same combo as above just different processor and about $50-60 more than what is there now.
