Default What is more important?

I have a mediocre rig at best but was thinking about upgrading it a bit. I was curious what was the best thing to focus on.

Upgrading my 2Gb of RAM to 4Gb

Upgrading my GeForce 8800 GT..

I know its a tough choice as both are total crap ROFL.. what do you all think would impact my game performance the most?

Thanks all.

i think 4gb will be good since 7 take more ram if im right. so that will halp u runnier ur program faster etc. but if u dont care about that get a gfx (all depend on ur powersupply etc)

well I may start with my RAM then work up to a new card. I think the RAM will help other performance based issues on my PC as well.

Thanks for the opinion.
