New PC.

So im finally dropping gaming on my laptop, it may play all my games, but it has a tiny screen compared to my 24" monitor.My desktop PC was bought 6 years ago and here are its current specs:
Windows XP 32 Bit
2gb RAM
Intel Pentium Dual CPU E2180 2.00 Ghz
Now we are getting:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64Bit
Intel Core i7 3.08 Ghz
4gb Ram, making it 6gb in total

Anything else to get?Because I dont wanna upgrade anything for about 3-4 years other than maybe an actual graphics card later this year

How much power does your PSU currently supply?
What's your GPU?

If you want proper gaming on it you'll probably have to buy a new GPU now too.
And 6GB of RAM is actually a bit of overkill, but it's dirt cheap so I don't really blame you.

I would wait a few months though, until those new Sandy Bridge CPU's are on the market, they deliver a big speed boost. I would really wait actually, and do more research concerning PSU and GPU. Also I would ask to move this topic to the Computer Systems forum.
