It kinda stutters alot even when I watch a replay on l2 (siege/war), So I think its time for an upgrade but dunno which to upgrade either CPU and RAM or just RAM...? I can spend up to $300...

here are my comp specs:

Athlon Xp +1800 (1.53GHz)
768MB of Ram (PC2100)
Nvidia GeForce FX 5900XT 128MB

$300...

Your computer is more than capable of running L2 low-mid settings. I would save up more money and then buy a 64bit CPU and mobo and a PCIe Graphics Card then some Dual Channel Ram. Maybe cost you about $500 for the lot but it will be far better for you in the long run.

If your just dying to spend some cash ^^ then get a AMD Athlon XP 3000+/3200+ (make sure its the right FSB they come in two standards). This will give you a great boost as you will be able to feed your graphics card faster and you will have a faster CPU.

You will have to scan around ebay as the 32bit athlon XP line has been discontinued. It shouldn't cost that much though maybe $50-$80?
