Everyone I'm in a dilemma here so I'm going to be straight I'll supposed to save up my money and buy more memory for my Dell latitude D630 and it was an actual good idea, until one of the fan fins on my galaxy Geforce 550 Ti broke off when I was cleaning the fan of dust so now I have enough money to pay for one so we should be should be the memory for my laptop or the new heatsink for my video card? Let me know what you guys think I should do.

Dell - Memory - 2 GB - SO DIMM 200-pin - DDR2 - 800 MHz / PC2-6400 - unbuffered - non-ECC

well ultimately the choice is yours. :) 

The laptop can wait since its functioning,But you can't use the gpu without a cooler.
But if you are not into that much of gaming.Go for the laptop's ram

Yes it's still is functioning, but still I wanted to buy memory to speed up my laptop it's been slow to loading programs and apps. But I could wait two months before I could buy it memory by time the price on the memory would have gone up. As for the fan on my video card I contacted galaxy about replacing the fan I was told that there was a two-year warranty on the card I told him that I had I had registered the video card and was a eligible for the extra year guess I wasn't because I didn't hear back from them.
