Most likely will need to upgrade your video card and it probably wouldn't hurt to put another gig of ram in.

What sort of video card and whats the price?

* 1x AGP slot (half height) unused

This will be a limiting factor. The AGP slot is two generations old, but you can still get cards for that slot.

What brand and model pc is this? You can go to the manufacturers website to see
how much more RAM you can use.
