Do not buy more than 3gb of RAM if you are running a 32bit operating system (99% sure you are). Why? 32 bit operating system cannot utilise anymore than 3gb of RAM

A really really really important thing, since you've experimenting around with Linux: Buy supported hardware. Dig around and around and around until your intended PC is fully supported. Most Intel stuff is safe, for example, so if you can't find any details on a particular piece of hardware, have in mind that Intel will almost assuredly work.
