My computer specs:

AMD Athlon ii x2 220 duel-core processor.
NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE graphics.
3GB DDR3 Memory (ram).
1TB hard drive.

Integrated LAN 10/100/1000

New cpu, new motherboard probably necessary if you upgrade, more ram, and new graphics card, and to be honest probably power supply as well because its probably 300-400 and 400 is barely cutting it for most builds. $400 dollars atleast if you aren't skimping :/

Graphics card, but you may need a new power supply first to use it, and the motherboard may not have a slot for it.

Pretty much everything you said is dead on.
At first id buy a new psu, then go for a cpu, & lastly more memory at least 4gb, but preferrably 8gb. Unless your mobo is old to them youll have to buy a new one. Practically build a new pc

To be honest mate, your best bet will be to build a complete new computer. there is too much which needs upgrading to make keeping your current worth it.

You should defiantly benefit from a few upgrades. First of all, I you should upgrade your CPU to an AMD Phenom II x4 quad-core processor (You can find them listed on Amazon). Second, your graphics card should be replaced as well. Third, get yourself some more ram, preferably 2x 4 GB ram sticks.

Just scrap the whole pc and build a new one as there is too much to upgrade in that pc.
