A good RAM recommendation would be Mushkin's Blue Line. It's their cheapest RAM, but even so Mushkin is well known for stability. The Blue is not a high performance memory, but is very capable and fairly cheap. Martian's suggestion for the GeForce 8500 is a good one if you are not a gamer. Trying to stick with aging equipment, AGP and DDR, can end up costing as much, and be of lower overall performance. New tech comes out too fast these days to try to keep support around for older stuff (older being more than 18-24 months, sadly).
