4.2GHz AMD quadcore processor, ASUS R7 graphics card with 1 Gb GDDR5, 4GB RAM. I built the whole thing for 500€ (including case and display), which made me pretty happy about the power-to-cost ratio. :<

Crudely, the things that dominate your computer's performance are the processor, and the graphics card (only for graphics-intensive tasks, like new games or video editing). RAM doesn't make much of a difference, as long as you have *enough* of it. RAM sticks are also cheap as mud (probably cheaper, since mud is a pretty exotic product), so you can always get more.

And I do also have a laptop with Windows XP and 512mb RAM. I use it to play Dink.
