More RAM for better Graphics performance
I have been running a games, Empire Total War, and it has become laggy. I was wondering if upgrading my RAM would help the performance. My system is as follows:
21.5-inch, Late 2009
Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB
Software OS X 10.8.2 (12C60)
This is from Activity Monitor 30 min after running game:
Free: 858.5 MB
Wired: 742.9 MB
Active: 945.8 MB
Inactive: 1.51 GB
Used: 3.16 GB
Vm Size: 243.90 GB
Page Ins: 838.8 MB
Page Outs: 394.3 MB
Swap Used: 432.8 MB
Would increasing my RAM increase the performance or should I be buying a newer computer with a better graphics card?
iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
