Can I record with more Ram?

Hello, and thanks for reading and helping me with your knowledge. I am intrested in recording games such as Mw2 and BFBC2 using Fraps. At this moment im getting a fairly good record speed at 35-45fps (using fraps) on my rig which is 2gb of ddr2 ram, 2x ATI radion 4850 video cards (512mb) and an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Duel Core Processor 5200 + 2.70 GHz. Tell me what i should improve to get better results, I think adding two more 1gb ram sticks as i have 2 extra slots. Clearly people here have more exp with computers as me, as im 14 but any advise would be very helpful.

Thanks

Do you think this build would be sufficiant http://www.bestbuy.com/site/AMD+-+Athlon%26%23153%3B+II+X4+Quad-Core+Processor+630/9877529.p?id=1218187477733&skuId=9877529

The Athlon II X4 CPU's are decent units for their price. If you can't stretch to a Phenom II X4 then the Athlon II is fine... It'll certainly be a big upgrade from your current CPU.

Ram does matter, if it freezes or choke for a few seconds. Check how much ram your using with fraps on, difference between 2gb to 3gb can be a worlds difference if you run out of memory.

30 fps is fine for a video, dont need to crank up that high.
