In the case of RAM: more helps more!

Taken from your test results here :

Code:

RAM related data: Maximum Memory Module Size: 4096 MB Maximum Total Memory Size: 8192 MB Maximum Capacity: 16 GB Maximum Memory Module Size: 4096 MB Maximum Total Memory Size: 8192 MB

[Obs: need to work on my script again, seems confusing]
If your MoBo has two slots, you can go up to 8GiB. With 4GiB, there should not be any change in swap usage, while running the script.

It supports up to 4gb, I managed to find markvision, I am going to get it soon.

Will an offboard video card help you too?

It does not matter as long as they work properly. Try a local shop for used ones, they are usually very cheap.

I got two ddr2 800mhz 2gb each, so now I have 4gb installed.
