Whats your mobos max ram speed? Also, 100 bucks wont buy both. You are probably better off upgrading gfx first though. 1.5gb is enough for gaming in a lot of cases. save another 20 - 30 bucks and you can get a decent gfx card and handle the shipping.

Well seeing as that's an AGP card (I'm almost positive), you likely don't have a PCI-e slot on your board, which is going to limit you to AGP cards.
You also most likely have DDR RAM, which is going to limit you to...well..DDR RAM.
