Rather buy a pre-build PC just to be sure everything is compatible and just cba to deal with all the hassle. Don't mind spending a few extra pound for it.

Btw, 250 stable on 1920x1080 is a must :P

your current pc is good enough for another year or so ( I think you can play all games medium - high )

Just change win vista to xp or w7.

BTW: If you're playing cod4 mostly get a nvidia card , ATI gets lower fps in cod4 ( and I had a resolution bug with 2 ATI cards I used , my resolution doesn't change my fps in any way , i can play with 800x600 or 1280x1024 yet the fps is not changed one bit, wasn't the case with my first ATI card)
