Looking on the unending flow of good exclusive games on 'nextgen' consoles aka PS4/X1 I made a desision to put my PC in a decent form and start playing 3rd party games on it.
So could anybody tell me what kind of machine will I need to play latest PC games with a comfort?
I will play it on my old Plazma HD-ready TV via HDMI and x360 gamepad, so I don't need it to be 1080р on ultra.
1280x720 with 4xAA and 60 fps on high will be more than enough for me.
My current setup is Intel Core Duo E7500, 4 Gb of Ram and 1 Gb AMD HD6800.
I feel that I need to up my RAM to 8 Gb and change a videocart to smth Nvidia's.
Any help/advices will be appreciated!

If you have a socket 775 for that Core2duo you could almost certainly go to a Core2Quad from Ebay those things cost in and around 50euros right now and the power boost you'll get will be massive.
If you're thinking about upgrading to 8gb of Ram you really will need to make sure your MoBo can take it, a lot of 775 socket ones cap out at 4gb, a tell tale sign of this would be if you right click on "Computer" and check how much ram is showing up there as useable because with a 1gb card you should already be running into memory addressing issues.
Also remember that if you want to go to anything over 4gb of memory you'll need to be using a 64bit version of whatever version of Windows you use, 32bit versions are capped at 4gb without some serious work arounds.

Yes, my MB supports 8Gb of RAM and i now ran on Win7 64-bit.
