Looking to upgrade

[Boka]

Alright, I currently own a Gateway GT5408, and I'm hoping to upgrade to a decent video card and hopefully max out the ram on it without spending too much money.. I guess a good "bang for my buck". Here are some of the specs for my comp..

* Each core operates at 1.80 GHz
* Shared 2 MB L2 cache
* 800 MHz front side bus

Chipset

Support for up to two hard drives

Up to 224 MB shared video memory

Audio Integrated 8-Channel (7.1) High Definition Audio

Add-in Card Slots One PCI Express ×16 (graphics interface)
# One PCI Express ×1
# Two PCI conventional
# External Connectors One PS/2 keyboard port
# One PS/2 mouse port
# One VGA monitor port

# Two IEEE 1394a port (one rear, one front)
# One RJ-45 Ethernet LAN port
# Seven audio jacks (five rear, two front)
# One S/PDIF optical audio port


Now hopefully I put all of the key info down. But what I want to do, like I said is try to max out the RAM which I'm guessing shouldn't be too hard since this is a pretty gimp computer in today's standards.

As for Video card I'm just looking for a decent one where I can run FFXI smoothly with everything possibly maxed. Being able to watch HD stuff would be a plus as well. I'm not really a huge PC Gamer aside from FF and maybe a few other things here and there (no shooters or anything that require crazy graphics) So anything too high end would most likely be wasted.

But yeah I'm not looking to spend a lot of money. Thanks for reading and hopefully I can get some help on this.

Thanks.

I'd take a look at the new Radeon 4670 for the best price/performance

If it's not available check out the 9600GT.
