if my ram is 191 mb, how laggy do you think sim city4 will be?

i was wondering if i should even install it, it might not be worth it, should i wait till' i get more ram? also how many people do you think i can get to when i have 191 mb of ram?

well, people have been saying that 1024MB of RAM makes this game run to loads of population, i think people get laggy at about 18-20,000 with 512MB

THat much RAM should be good enough once the game loads.

I have 512MB and its does get laggy at about 30,000 population. And when I got to 60,000 it pretty much barely gets by.
