Well im afraid everything would need to be updated to make putting money into it 'worth it'. I would suggest to sell what you have now and put the money towards a new build....

Don't get me wrong you could upgrade it.... its just you could spend the money better and get more performance.....
I doubt the board will support anything over P4 so you need a new one, along with a new cpu, then DDR2 memory, also a pci-e card (which will require new PSU)...... which is pretty much replacing everything. So you may as well build from scratch.....
