  Hello,

  just one question: if I have a server with a CPU of 1 GHz and 640 MB RAM. To get better performance, is it better to buy a second CPU or more RAM?

  Thanks in advance

  Matthias

  The best bet would be to monitor the server.

  ie cpu, memory, pagefile etc.

  If the cpu is being heavly used/max'ed out getting another cpu would help, but if the server is paging to the harddisc etc more memory would help.

  Regards
