Ram and Video Card Question

    Hi I am looking to get more RAM and a new Video Card for my computer.

    I want a Video Card that can handle most games pretty well. I'm not to sure on how to install it though but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

    I know how to install RAM, I currently have 256mb RAM and I am looking to get around 1Gig.

    How much would this cost me, Just a rough estimate?

    It depends on what type of ram you have...given you only have 256 i'm guessing its an older system and in terms of graphics cards if its an older system you probably have a slot for the graphics card called an agp slot. These have been since replaced by pci express slots but getting a graphics card for an agp isn't that hard as they are still available. Post up your spec and we can give you a better idea.

    (if you can install ram you can install a graphics card no probs;) )
