Should i buy RAM or a graphics card?
So here is what i do on my PC.
I do a lot of photshop and video editing. The rendering time takes too long for a 6 minute video, it takes about 45 minutes. I currently have a 4GB DDR3 RAM.
The reason i want a Graphics card is because i want to play some PC games like Cs:Go, H1Z1, GMod, DayZ. I will not be playing demanding games like COD or Battlefield. I don t have a Graphics card, i will mainly be playing Cs though.
What would you recommend for me? I don t have a lot to spend so a 8GB of RAM is 50 bucks. I am only looking to spend 100 or 150 max. Can i buy both for 100 or 150?
Also name a good Graphics card for 100 or under that is decently good.

I would suggest going on tigerdirect they have some amazing builds for computers, and to be honest if you're willing to spend 150 might as well check out their self built desktops. You get an octa core, plenty of ram, an amazing graphic card, a terabyte of memory, and a bit more. You'll be set for editing and gaming for about $500. But if you're not really willing to pay that much I would say go for the ram you can live without hd graphics but the ram will actually help out the processing for both editing and gaming.

If you told us what GPU your running now would help then can suggest GPU better than your current.
Also 150 is enough for only a pretty well GPU... like 3 Generations back...
So if AMD is currently at their 290 @ $350
their 280 will be for @ $250
and 270 will be @ $150
But $150 will get you a Decent GPU but no Memory with it.
Also, 8 GB Ram chip is about $100
a 4 GB is $50

If it is compatible the MSI Geforce 750 is $100 on Newegg. Not sure how it will be as I am starting my first build tomorrow. If you are running single channel or 4x1 gb get another ram module of the same frequency and manufacturer. If running dual channel get an 8gb kit, dual gives a bit of performance boost.
