Is this the right ram for me?
OCZ Fatal1ty 4GB Dual Channel PC8500 DDR2 1066MHz (2x2048MB)

Im trying to play stuff like Assasins Creed and Call of Duty 5 My graphics card is a GeForce 6600gt PCIe 512mb/128bit but they run glitchy and laggy. I have 1gig now plus I run vista, assasins creed recommends 2gig i think and I can get like 20fps but it tweaks and stuff will this Ram improve my gaming?
