It wouldn't be easy, since your mobo can't take an Athlon you'd need to upgrade that too. But it'd be a very good idea.

What you should do if you're starting to be interested in upgrading your PC yourself for better game performance, is get a CPU/ motherboard/ and ram. If you have a normal size case there won't be a problem with that. It will basically be like getting a new PC.

Abit NF-7 v2.0
Xp 1700+ TBred-B Core DLT3C JIUHB 0319 or- barton of some kind-
pc 3200 or 3500 ram. that is compatible. OCZ maybe? Someone around here will tell you what works for them.

You'll be set for a while.

You may need a better PSU (power supply) to handle the extra goodies. 400 to 550 watt- (good brand, not cheapo)

Then I will be jealous of you. Good luck.
