What would I need to run on Ultra settings?

I'd like to be able to run Skyrim on Ultra settings as well as load some of the high end mods. Right now the game defaults to medium settings for me and there is still some noticeable lag moving about that becomes extreme when trying to navigate a menu with the cursor. I've posted my PC's specs below. Is it possible to upgrade some of my hardware to be able to run Ultra and if so what would you recommend? Or am I better off investing in a whole new system? Thanks for any help you can give me!

 

EVGA nForce 790i Ultra SLI motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16 GHz CPU
4 X 2 GB DDR3 G.Skill Ripjaws RAM
Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 2GB Graphics card
Windows Vista 64 OS

I suspect your processor is what is holding you back..... unfortunately, you are about at the top end for speed on that socket. You could conceivably replace the motherboard, and processor, with something a bit *meaner*, and re-use the rest of what you have.

 

Or, buy a new system... depends on your budget. :D
