well i would go with the ram upgrade for sure. As for the video card you might want to upgrade to one with more memory, for guild wars im sure it works fine, but if you want this to be a gaming computer in the future you will need more.

Do you have AGP or PCIe? I would go for 512MB on the video and do the 2GB RAM upgrade. You'll feel like you have a new PC.

retro is right, 512 is the way to go. It basically assures that the only lag will NOT be due to graphics, itll be able to run on high without graphic lag, only internet or server problems. Nvidia has good cards but i think the ATI's cards are more reliable and last longer without getting worse. Also, you will find a lot better video cards for PCI-e(express) then you will for PCI or even AGP. Hope this helped. Oh, and yes, upgrading from 512mb of ram to say 1Gb or 1.5gb or even 2gb would really help too.
