Memory question and possible upgrade

I am wondering if upgrading my memory is worth it.

I am running Win 7 64bit Home Premium

Motherboard is Gigabyte EP35-DS3L

I am currently running 4 gigs, and was wondering if going to 8 would be worth it.

I 2 box the game sometimes and with Ultra mode it slows down to a crawl....

My video card is Nvidia Geforce 9600GT 512

Not sure if this is enough info or not.....

I guess my 3 options are

1. leave alone and run minimal settings when I 2 box

2. Upgrade memory?

3. Upgrade Card

Not sure

Thanks

Anaku

Please add your CPU and Monitor Resolution, this will help determine a full answer and advice from me.
Off the top of my head I'd say dual boxing with 9600GT on mainly Ultra settings isn't going to be ideal with even 300 gigs of ram.
Thanks.

Don't be a mindless farm toon, we may need you on a non-soft SF someday. =)

I can dual instance on an i7-860, 4 Gb RAM, Win7x64 without an issue, just for a reference point. That said:

1. What CPU do you have, and
2. Yes, you need a better video card.

I kind of figured I would need a new video card ...wasn't sure if increasing the ram would help at all either.....

In my small opinion , the most ideal advice I can offer is;
Overclocking your cpu just a tad, perhaps to 3.3ghz coupled with a new ATI Raedon Graphics card 5xxx series. The 5850 or higher series seems most excellent at this time. I have a few mates with a version of this card that just absolutely fly with this game. One has 23 inch monitor- full resolution, q6600 OC to 3.3Ghz with 8gigs of ram (1066 DDR2) and a 5850 (1gig ram) with Win7 64bit and can literally triple box with most Ultra settings on.
You also will need a proper CPU Heatsink and efficient power supply . I do believe your CPU and RAM slightly OC'd with a good 5850 will make this game smooth again even with dual boxing in Ultra. You will even be able to raise your resolution to native 24 - 1900x1080 HD from my experience, perhaps higher .
