Firstly, you want an upgrade only for undercover? What are current settings its running on?

The only thing I feel you need to upgrade is your ram.

Get 2 gig more and you can easily play at 720p

You can sell the above rig to somebody for about 7K min.(dont change PSU) [you can sell it to a newbee for more too if you wanted] I'm recommending this as every item you have is /was high end during its era so upgrading a few items will not do you'll have to replace entire system to get a good performance.

For 20 K get the following config.

Ram : Transcend 2X2gb Powerchip Transcend Rs.1200*2 = Rs.2400/-

MOBO : MSI P45 Neo F Rs.5500/-

GFX : Palit HD 4830 Rs.8400/-

CPU : Intel C2D E7300 Rs.5800/-

The above config will be game ready for 1year at least.
Wait for more recommendations.

HD 4830 Rs.8400/- is a ripoff.

You can get 4850 for 500 bucks more.

Why I say, for just 1 game, you want to spend soo much when you could get it done in much less.
