A performance boost at what task?

For gaming you would definitely get a boost.

ram is very cheap...upgrade, get back to us.
your video card is low end...upgrade...get back to us.
I own a non pci FX 5200 for a Vista system...just to get it going till new vid card.
I don't even try to play BF2.

You give so little and want so much.
