First of all I would upgrade the videocard like Gogetenkz suggested... That 9800PRO would work just fine

Next thing I would suggest is upgrading to a gig of ram. Alot of newer games like Vietnam and Far Cry actually fail to say that they require 1 gig to run at high settings.

I plan on upgrading to a gig of ram most likely as soon as I get some mula!
