EDIT: No time like now to shamelessly plug my sticky at the top of this section. If you are upgrading gfx, don't forget your PSU!
I have about £500 and I am looking at upgrading my motherboard, CPU, PSU memory and OS at the moment graphics card can come a bit later.

Think that that combined with what you have will work just fine for some time yet. Just upgrade the graphics card when needed.

Ah right, and a 64b DX11 OS, Win7 being the obvious choice.
Thanks been looking at these
