2gb of RAM improve loading times?

[IwantanewPC]

i like to play CS:Source on 1600x1200 but this increases the map loading times by quite abit.

i have 1gb of RAM at the minute, if I increase it to 2gb will I see much if an improvement on the loading times?

Here's my usual tip before upgrading to more RAM:

Press CTL+ALT+DEL and go to the Performance tab, in the Commit Charge section there is a value called Peak, you need to see if that is over 1,000,000K, if it is then you are filling your gig of RAM and are then paging to disk, and a RAM upgrade will benefit you

If you are paging then its likely more RAM will cut down those loading times, BF2 is the prime example, but CSS at that res might be hitting 2gb territory.

I assume I do that when Source is running right?

And which one do I look at? Total, Limit or Peak?
