My computer goes slow - do I need more RAM or a better CPU?

I think the RAM helps because just after i used up the RAM capasity, the system went a lot slower.

While I agree those are CPU intensive programs, I'm not convinced that is his problem. CPU should not be maxing out like that. Highly suspect you have a buggy program somewhere.

The RAM chip helped alot!

The tables works a bit slower the more I play, but PAHUD dont lag anymore and the mouse moves smooth.

More RAM will generally speed things up (up to a point).

This is a pretty good article about determining whether or not you have enough memory.

You processor isn't the greatest, but trying to run these programs with less than a gig of ram is retarded. I would add even more if I was you.

Tried without pokeroffice now, (only PT and PAHUD and some scripts). Everything went fast, and the computer did never slowed down.
