He likely has a pentium 4. With such a slow cpu that won't make a significant difference and you should know that.

Don't listen to him. You need to upgrade your entire system, not just your RAM.

Yes you are right i cannot buy a new computer, just want your opiniion what to upgrade for more speed - which gives more speed graphics card or ram?
You need new cpu to gain any significant speed boost,not new graphics card or ram,because your cpu is probably too old.
Buying new cpu+board+memory is not that expansive,you can do that for about $200 you should consider that.
If you dont have that much money,then I guess you should buy new graphic card because its seems you have integrated one which is crap.
