I.E. a…

I currently have an ATI Radeon 9600xt and 1 gig of Ram...I know both need upgrades...but to what? All suggestions will be appreciated.

Just finishing up the low poly, just over 5,000 tris at this point. This is my first real character project, so any advice on how to make it better is more than welcome!
