For the ram i suggest that u get it from ADATA cuz there not to pricey. hope this helps dude. don't but more than 4 gigs of ram if u running 32 bit os.|||You dont need to list all that info, the only thing you need to do is open your computer, and switch out the old RAM for the new. As for the videocard, you do the same, take out the old, and in with the new. If you have a newer video card you will need to connect an alternate power supply for it to run efficiently. hope that helped
