Hi all
I am thinking about putting some E-bay memory in my girlfriends old socket 939, ASRock 939Dual-SATA2 MB, Athlon64 3000+ venice, running XP and not connected to the web. Currently it has 1Gb (2x512Mb).
The machine is only used for photoshop CS2 works fine but is a bit slow for some photoshop actions. I was thinking giving it cheap upgrade from Ebay to 4GB might speed it up significantly?
If so would the following work?

or
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4GB-4X1GB...629034?hash=item1a0b79006a:g:UiwAAOSwSHZWgtab
Or would this CPU make a bigger difference?

I realise that it is a very old PC and upgrading it is probably not the thing to do but I do not want to replace this PC yet as it does the job all be it a bit slow at times, not planning to spend much.
Any tips on finding the correct sort of memory to use
Thanks
