If your budget allows I might bump up the RAM to 12 (you didn't list it so I am guessing you're going with 8) or bump the processor up to an i7. It's better to have a little too much computer for what you need than too little computer.
This is the worst advice
Bump that video card up first if you're going to be spending any money upgrading, that's where you'll get the most significant improvement to framerates

Normally you would be right but the OP clearly stated the sole game he was wanting this for and the video card he has chosen is well above the recommended specs for it.
The game's recommended video spec is an integrated 2GB card that first hit the market almost a decade ago. The OP is already going with a new-model 4GB dedicated card that will give him all the smooth frames he needs even at the game's highest settings. Getting a better card at that point is for nothing more than bragging rights. Hell, you might as well be saying to not run EverQuest on anything less than a 2xxx series.
