[QUOTE="Badger, post: 186985"] As noted above both have their own benefits but I would do the RAM first. OS X runs virtual memory all the time. If a program or the system starts to run short on RAM it will access VM which is based on the hard drive. The HD is always slower than RAM. The more RAM you have the less the system will use VM.
