    more available RAM for the obvious answer.


    But what types of games / video do you intend on using / playing?

    If you dont HIGH end game or do video editing, then 1GB will be fine.

    1GB'll run high end games as well, though.

    Mine runs Oblivion just fine

    Some games run well, some dont, I never have less than 1GB in my machines.

    Video editing however will use more RAM than gaming, and some games released have a hard time running, but that also depends on what else your computer is running while you're playing games.
