Best budget RAM would be 1GB DDR2 667MHz, You can get this for about £80, A good budget graphics gard would be the X1950 for about £139. Work it out in dollars yourself ;)

If your looking for the best bang for about $200, look at this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130286 for your next vid card.  As for ram, what kind of CPU and MoBo do you have?

First off download BELARC ADVISOR: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

 

Then run it after you have installed it. This program tells you everthing you need to know about your compter....ie mobo, ram , etc etc

 

Hope this helps

Don't get a DX9 card.  It's at the point to where it's getting upractical to call a high end DX9 card an upgrade, I'd get a mid range DX10.

sad but true re:dx10 cards. not that you need dx10 support, but it looks like performance wise it won't be long until things like my 7600gt can only push 20fps in new games.

O_o, you want to upgrade with this thing, OMFG, even my old DFI board I'm using now has better characteristics than this thing, even if you are using a dual core P4.  My suggestion, get a new mobo, cpu, ram, and vid card, then pray to god your PSU has enough power to run all of them and go from there.  If you want performance advice on new hardware then just look me up on X-Fire, I'm usually able to find you guys some pretty good deals as I'm accustomed to finding cheap parts for computers that need them.  Just ask shignog if I was able to help him find some parts he's been needing for his new sys.  Again, I have no problem helping out when I'm on, whenever I get on my computer I launch X-Fire, Steam, Zune, and then Firefox, not always in that order but those are always the programs I'm running.
