Old system I picked up from a friend for $160 when my laptop died. Short on the $ so what my best upgrade:
OS: Vista Ultimate - 64Bit
Mobo: Asus P5AD2-E Premium
HD: Maxtor 6L100P0 ATA (100gb HD)
RAM: Corsair XMS DDR2 400mhz (2gb total)
VCard: ATI Radeon HD 3800 (512mb)
lol not exactly a great gamign system as its parts are wut 2006/2007ish. But for a couple bucks what would be my best bet? Looking to spend under $100, less is more! Oh BTW trying to get the upgrade to play AION a bit more smoother.. Which i should alreadybe doing with ym spec but idk meh lol.
"Recommended System Specifications::
Microsoft Windows XP SP2 / Vista
*Dual Core CPU 2.0GHz or equivalent
2GB RAM
NVIDIA 6800 with 256MB RAM / ATI x800 with 256MB or higher "
I'm thinking 2bg more of RAM cus Vista + Video card drains out soo much of it already lol. Can I mix speeds/sizes like this and be ok? this looks like pretty cheap for 2bg of Corsair.

Or would grabbing a cheap 2nd ATI 512 card and crossfireing it work better?
