If you'll be doing lighter gaming and internet stuff you won't need a new system for that like vaderpro specced out, but that is an option if you want a whole new main system or something.
For upgrading your current one I would suggest:

Memory-$115

Graphics- $103

or if you want even better:

As for your monitor, I really like Samsung. Good prices, great monitors.Any of these will be fine depending on on what you want more, 17" or 19"

For what you've told us you'll be doing you proc is fine, your mobo may not support a much faster one anyways. Video is going to be a must and after that memory. Prosavage and Unichrome are the worst integrated graphics available right now, those have gotta go.
