How about trying an AMD gpu? They are great at budget gpus, and they are much better than quite a few nvidia gpus at the lower price ranges
This is a great one, it is approximately $150

By the way, this is a cheaper and really good pair of ram, it is 8gb and is dual channel of course

I have bought it before, works really well and I have had no problems with it.

OK. Thx for the answer. What kind of GPU would you suggest that is within $50 of the current GPU?

Hi there,

There is no problem with compatibility, however a little bit more powerful gpu would not hurt. Now I don't know your budget and your needs like resolution, but I can safely say that if you spend $90 on ram and $110 on gpu then something is not right.

If you can spend more buy a better gpu, if not then get 4GB ram and put the saved money towards a better gpu.
