That's an ancient CPU. Don't bother doing anything with that CPU. I highly recommend you save up about $450-500 for a decent gaming PC and do a new build.

^+1000. This is a MUCH better option than building a PC around the Celeron D.

I came close to upgrading my Pentium 4 PC until I realized that it was ging to cost about $300 to buy new "old" parts and for just a little more I could have all brand new technology. In the end I got a combo deal that means in the end I'll have spent $650 that'll run the games I want to play at max settings. You're not going to get anywhere near that capability with a celeron D PC.
