Choose add gadgets to the desktop.

Choose the one marked CPU meter.

It will end up on your desktop. The front meter is CPU usage; the back meter is RAM usage.

If you never see that RAM meter up near 100%, more memory is pointless in your case.
I have it running, CPU is set on 7% or so and RAM is around 17-20%. Am I good?

So, am I good?

...and 7% and 15% CPU / Memory respectively is more than acceptable too.
