Celeron 2.4 Ghz, 1 GB RAM for phpAdsNew or for MySQL

We consider moving the phpAdsNew software to another dedicated box (currently everything from my server is on a DUAL Xeon with 1.5 GB RAM). We are generating around 1,200,000 - 1,800,000 adviews / month served by phpAdsNew.
My server is at servermatrix and now they have a special for a Celeron ( https://www.servermatrix.com/solutions/sc24_server.html ) and we consider moving some content to another server. We consider 2 options:
1. Move the phpAdsNew software, database and subdomain to the new Celeron server.
2. Keep the phpAdsNew software and subdomain on old server but move every database to the Celeron server, so MySQL will be run from the other server.

Which one should we go with?

My current server info (load average + MySQL) is below:
