well what do you need the most?
if you were me, you'd get ram, because i need it badly. then again, i've looked real well for ram, so i'd end up getting a new card and ram

not sure you really need a 8600 gt if your comp was 250 bucks and your only gunna have 1.5 gig ram. depends on what your doing with it though. for gaming it will help, but if your editing or doing anything else, just upgrade a ton of ram

if it was that cheap, it probably wouldn't be worth upgrading that much. in your case, i would say zune, or Zen Creative Vision: M.

if your computer was as cheap as you said, before you get a new card make sure your motherboard supports it. and i'm not sure how ell a good video card will jive with crap components.
just put money where you think you will use it the most.
