Hi every1, I need your help.
I have a Core2Duo 1.7, 1gb of ram, 320gb hd, a built-in x3000 graphics card on Vista.
I am wondering what would give me a better performance. Adding a gb of ram would give me back the memory the graphic card is taking, but a new video card would stop the ram bandwith that the graphic card is making.
What do you think? Thanks,
JP

Really depends on what you're looking to improve. If you're a gamer, definitely a better vid card. If you're after photoshop performance, video editing or related, the increased memory would be a good bet.
In all honesty, though, never use on-board video for anything but a server. IMHO.
