I get graphics slowdown when running two clients with decal loaded (and sometimes without it loaded, but who doesn't use decal?  ) Anyway, I'm wondering if I were to invest in ridding that graphics slowdown would I need to upgrade the whole video card or would adding more RAM to my system be sufficient?
Current setup:
2.8ghz
1024 RAM
128mb ATI 9800
I'm thinking about adding another gig of RAM anyway, just wondering if that'd alleviate my issue.

Single core processor that is likely a Northwood core and a few years old? Check
Graphics card that is a few series old with only 128MB of RAM? Check
Those are the causes. An AC client uses between 200-400MB of RAM as well, so it won't *hurt* to add more, but the main bottlnecks are your GPU and processor.
edit: After a long time I will get slowdown on one of my clients if I am hunting both of them, and I have an ATI X1800XT, AMD Althon64 3700+, and 2GB of RAM.
