hey guys,

i have this gaming machine and need to stick with it for few more years, can't afford to buy a new one.

Processor: P4 2.8ghz
Motherboard: Asus P4V8X-X 800MHz FSB VIA P4X533Chipset DDR400 Socket 478 Motherboard with AGP 8X and PCIE 4X
Memory: 1GB RAM ddr1 400mhz (2 sticks 512mb running on dual channel)
Video Card: GeForce 9400GT 512mb 128bit (running on 4x PCI-E slot)
Operating System: Windows XP Pro SP2
Power Supply: 450W PSU (generic)

Just wanted to check if i can still maximize this machine and use it for the upcoming games, can you tell me if there's something i can replace or add to make it more powerful or let say to reach it's limit as a gaming machine with regard to ram, video card etc.

I think P4 2.8ghz is the last processor my board can handle. please advise.
