Old thread, but I can help.
I build computers all the time.
To actually play a game properly you'll have to replace pretty much all the components in that computer, or even get a whole new computer.
I'd recommend you get another mobo, LGA 775 is really old now and pretty much obsolete (and I doubt your board will support even a quad core LGA775 processor). LGA 1155 is what Intel currently develops for, so that's a good option. You can grab one for around 50 bucks. Pair it with any Core i5, or an i3 2120.
Put in a graphics card like a AMD 7770, or GTX 660 Ti.
And since LGA 1155 boards don't support DDR or DDR2 RAM, you'll also have to get some DDR3 RAM.
And you've got a gaming computer that's capable of playing many of the latest games at decent frame rates.
Whole new computer capable of running almost all newer games at 30 FPS on High settings.

All around 500 bucks.
Oh and is your name by any chance from ROBLOX?
