Motherboard I have? For Videocard...

You can use a program like Everest to identify your motherboard, but it's difficult if your PC is pre-built as they tend to use generic motherboards. However you can find out what bus your graphics card uses, whether it's PCI or AGP, and buy something accordingly.

Another thing, is it advisable to upgrade my computer at all before using a better card? And what kinda card should I use... I'm probably not gonna go for something over 128bit since it's kinda old

Also, I'm thinking of upgrading my RAM, not sure what kind or what I should look for

It's advisable to upgrade your CPU if you intend to upgrade your motherboard, otherwise your CPU becomes the limiting factor and your graphics card won't be able to reach its potential. There are plenty of good AGP cards out there (i.e. nVidia 7800GS or ATI X800), but the AGP bus is dying fast, so I question the usefulness of such an upgrade.

Everest should also tell you what type of memory your motherboard supports. Having more memory never hurts.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
