Nooooo, please not tell wrong things and read phat's technical thread. It is NOT the RAM memory!!!!! It is in first priority the VRAM memory (the memory on your videocard)!!!!!

If you run out of this memory, it swaps to normal RAM at second stage. But than it is already too late, because a normal RAM is generally slower and is far away from the videocard with a slow BUS. All RAM memory afterwards is simply to slow to do athis amount of work fast enough. It could help to gain some performance with faster RAM, but the main problem: "running out of VRAM" still remains unsolved.

Just concerning the memory bottleneck!
