    Agree. If you, already, have 2G RAM, get a good VGA card (for 300$, you can get a good one). I started topic about video card, and guys are really, really, helping

    So you mean X1900 instead of X700 would be more effective than 2GB to 4GB?

    As I understood, you need a GOOD VGA card to play MIITW. Without that, it will affect negatively your computer perfomance (read, slow your battles down). Again, I'm not a tech guy, but it seems, upgrading video card is better idea.
