Answer The first thing you should check for is whether all of your drivers are up to date. You shoudl do this for your video card and your BIOS for your mothrboard. You can find this on their respective websites.
If all of your dirvers are up to date I would recommend getting at least a gigabyte of RAM. That will help when dealing with complex textures.
