HUGE difference in performance
On 1 gig vs. 2 gig RAM, man what a difference! SH4 is SLOW on my 1 gig RAM machine PC crap machine.

you can run it with 1GB RAM but you won't like it... that's all I have to say. I was in your position last month. I finally cracked and decided to get not just 2GB but a new PC. It's coming next Tuesday. From what I hear from the group, the sim will be reborn. Get the extra ram. It's rather cheap right now.
Think of it like this... you spend the money to buy a Corvette but you don't pitch in the cash to get great tires. What's the point?!
I think Sean Connery's character put it best in "The Untouchables"...
"If you're going up against these people Mr. Ness then you must be prepared to go all the way."
Get the RAM. You'll thank me.
