Nvidia 7200 512mb= really bad. Your cpu and ram are plenty fine. You need to get hooked up with a 8 series card 8500 or higher. DX09 cards are obsolete!

Everything looks great EXCEPT the graphics card. It is anemic even with its 512mb memory. Here are some options:
Cheap= 7300GT ddr3 (but DX9 only), 8400GS (bang for the buck DX10)

Better= 8600GT or GTS, X1950 Pro (DX9)
Awesome= 8800GTS, GTX, Ultra (Requires a big power supply with at least 30 amps on the +12V rail).

Other three parts look good, the video card is junk. If you want good performance, look for something in the GeForce 8800 or HD 2900 range, or for a little less the Radeon X1950 or GeForce 7950 range.
