I wont to be able to upgrade my pc so it plays the following games fine.
Flight Simulator X
GTA San Andreas - ( No Lag At all )
Call of duty 2-4
Crysis ( If possible )
Battlefield 2 - 2142
Current CPU: Intel® Pentium® Dual Core - 3.00 GHZ :)

Oh hai friend.
Well, how much RAM do you have? If you have 2 gigs DDR2, you should be perfectly fine.
About your Gfx card, I use an EVGA nVidia 8800GT, and I can run Crysis on Very High (Overclocked though) with about 30FPS.
My specs:
EVGA nVidia 8800GT
AMD 6400+ dual Core 3.2Ghz
2 Gigs DDR2 Corsair
Anyways, your CPU is fine, its close to mine, and runs smooth & fast.
on www.newegg.com the 8800GT is $169.00 = 86.6844 Great British Pound (not sure if its the right name)
For RAM, if you don't have 2 gigs (if you're using 32-bit)
Kingston HyperX NVIDIA SLI-Ready 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104008)
That is about 32.8272 Greap British Pound.
Also, what is your motherboard? Like, what kind?
Flight Simulator X - Will run, though I Could Not run it at MAX MAX settings with my system, it pissed me off (the game itself) do I didnt have much time to test. Though the game ran good.
GTA San Andreas - ( No Lag At all ) - Easily @ Maxed settings
Call of duty 2-4 - Easily @ Maxed settings
Crysis ( If possible ) - You will have some trouble at maxed settings.
With Crysis, I have my GPU Overclocked, my CPU also, though its only a Super tiny bit over 3.2Ghz.
I run it with EVERYTHING at Very High except Shader Detail, that is at High.
Note: If you are using XP, you can only run the game on 'High' settings, as 'Very High' is DX10.
Only Vista supports DX10.
Battlefield 2 - 2142 Easily @ maxed settings

As for the graphics if you will for a longer time that you computer is a trend I recommend you 512mb GeForce 9800GTX.
This graphic is the same as 2x8800GT. But I see that u have limited budget then could repent attention to the 8800GT or 8800GTX
because they are the best cards from 8 series. For ram memory i can recommend Kingston hyperX ddr2 2x1GB on 1066mhz
latency is 5-5-5-15 or GEIL BlackDragon ddr2 2x1GB on 800mhz latency 4-4-4-12 or 5-5-5-15.(less latency is better)
And most important is that those memories re for overclockers.
Those games will go perfect in any case..

Only Vista supports DX10. << False - Their are fixes for the game in wich you can run it on XP and it looks exactly the same as the vista very high. Although it is not worth the performance drop to do so. If you want better graphics on XP for the game at High I suggest getting the Nature Mod
