Should I buy more RAM or a new graphics card?

I am very interested in buying the Total Experience, but in the past, I have played trials for both Galaxies and Jump to Lightspeed and they were both very sluggish around cities and other places where there were large groups of people.  I am not sure if I should buy more RAM or update my graphics card, since I can only afford to buy one or the other.  I have 512 MB of RAM and a GeForce FX 5200 128 MB graphics card.  Any advice would very appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    Both.

    Ive 5700 and 1 gb of ram, and still performance suffers on towns badly.

    Even if people says 1 gb of ram is enough, i think thats the min to play the game. About the gfx card, the same. I think a 6600 would be very ok, and the price is worth it right now.

    However, youll be able to play the game. Even though some times youll get out of nerves with load times and so.

    Yeah, I found a 6600 that is on sale at a local computer store, so I'll probably buy that first.

    The first thing I would buy is 1 GIG RAM.

    Have fun
