Do you play a lot of game? If so, I'd go with the graphics. That seems like a good price for that card.

if you game then i would say go with the gpu.

then later when you have the extra money get more ram.

I have seen the performance (or lack of it) in games of the X1300 and would definately suggest that you would upgrade the graphics card if you intend to play games.

I to agree with upgrading your graphics card to start with as you have enough ram to start off with and the graphics card would be a better immediate upgrade especially if you play games frequently, and then maybe later upgrade the ram if you find your comp laging

I agree it's better to upgrade the GPU rather than the ram as you have enough RAM to go with espacially if you play many games which require graphics.
