Ouch, 775, It wouldnt improve much of your gaming; for smoother game-play, and from ive been told (Alot of add-ons =lag)
Go for DDR3 Dimms (RAM)

Remember, to access the full 4gig+ (over) you need to use a 64bit Operating system. XP or Win7 will do
----
If you got the money, get an SSD for your C-drive, and have a 2TB for your storage (2TB should cost the same as the 750, or just a $20 difference)
AMD Phenom II X6 Six Core 1090T 3.20GHz 9MB Cache (OC 3.86); Gigabyte GA-890FXA-UD7; CORSAIR DDR3 8GB PC3-16000 (2x4gig);  EVGA NVIDIA GTX470 SuperClocked (X3)
