Hello. Was just wondering if it would be a good idea to maybe put in like $40-50 into my old HTPC that I made out of some old parts. I was thinking of just buying 4gb of generic ddr2 ram off ebay (I know I shouldn't be investing in a DDR2 system but whatever 
) and like one of those super cheap Radeon HD 5450's that you can get for like $20 and they use next to no power. Right now I have a 3400 which works ok but I kinda want my system to run a bit smoother and maybe be able to play really old games like tf2, garrys mod, minecraft, etc. on it better than what I have right now. I was thinking of just buying a new gaming system in a few months but it's really hard to wait as I am getting daily BSOD's and crashes from what I believe to be the dying RAM that I have. Should I upgrade now or just wait?
