Upgrade advice?

Hey all, I've been out of the hardware loop for a bit, so I know nothing about the recent new and awesome hardware. Built my current rig in summer of 08 and was thinking that maybe a video card upgrade would be in order.

Q6600
8800GT
4GB DDR2 RAM

^Current specs

Suggestions? Would it be worth it? I was thinking under $175 for pricing, new or used.

I can run most new games maxed out (apart from full AA and AF), but still get some occasional slowdown at times. I was thinking that even a year old card could get that little extra performance boost.
