You can do 2 major upgrades. These 2 major upgrades will let you play SC2 on pretty high settings.

1st things first, get rid of that power supply and upgrade it to a half descent one. This XFX one is trusted and WON'T fail you, I promise

69.99 for the PSU - That leaves you with 130$ for a GPU.

Since you're on such a low budget, you're probably going to have to go with a recertified video card. I found that GTX 460 for only 119.99, that's a really good price. This card will play SC2 no problem.
