I'm looking to upgrade my system over the next 2-3 months, I'd appreciate any suggestions on what you think would be worth upgrading from my current setup. I enjoy gaming. I am mainly looking at graphics, CPU, hard drive and possibly the motherboard but if you think something else could do with an upgrade don't hesitate to mention it. I'd have about £150 max to spend on each component. I can go higher but want to limit myself for financial reasons. You can see my current system setup in my signature below.
 
Many thanks in advance. :)

What's the total budget? Beside gaming, what are the other uses?

No more than £500 max.  And it is mainly for gaming and perhaps the odd photo/video editing.

Ok, gaming & multimedia editing, your best upgrades would be a quad core cpu like Q6600 & a HD4870. I think they just fit the bill. Oh and if you can, try and squeeze another 2 gigs of ram into the upgrades.
