it will help, yeah but along with More RAM you'll need a good videocard (128) will be ok for nowadays games, another thing is your processor sped i mean how fast is your PC. also video controllers such as DirectX may help you out. I hope it helped. Cheers

It depends on the specs of the machine in the first place.

Upgrading the RAM may not necessarily help in any way. If the CPU speed cannot handle the process, and if the video card also cannot then there's no use upgrading the RAM.

It will also depend on what the recommendations are for the game. Older games will use less resources and memory than the newer games

If you don't even have 128MB RAM then i would assume that your processor would not be too crash hot either.

The standard these days for PC's is 256mb RAM.

A good video card is key to higher end graphics, but more ram never hurts. It allows your pc to reach its potential.

120 GB Ultra DMA Hard Drive* grin No one wants to believe me! ...now if I can just find a way to install games into my hard drive confused sad. 512 MBs or more and your set for the future, and memory cards, are the easiest things to install! Welcome to the real world of computers, theyr'e so easy, and all people do is play games on them!
