I was thinking about upgrading my RAM sticks and my graphics card but I'm not sure if the new ones I picked out works with my computer. If I can get any help. Thanks.

My computer:
Intel(R)
Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz
512 of RAM

My graphic card:
GeForce 4 MX 440 with AGP8X 64 MB

for RAM I picked out:
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory
Newegg.com - CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory

and for graphic card I picked out:
ASUS N7600GS SILENT/HTD/256M GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card
Newegg.com - ASUS N7600GS SILENT/HTD/256M GeForce 7600GS 256MB 128-bit GDDR2 AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards

Do these two work with my computer?
 
184pin is the Socket it goes into, PC 3200 is the speed, before you buy the RAM, figure out if you're on 184pin or 240pin otherwise don't buy the RAM
 
I ran CPU-Z but it doesn't say anything about 184pin or 240pin in the Mainboard tab.

Thanks PuddleJumper, but how can you tell the difference?
 
You could go to Crucial.com and run their little Scan My System program, but you can only run the scanner in Internet Explorer. It will tell you what types of RAM you have/need.
