Can 8 gb ram play game more smo0th than 4 gb?

[Devendra love gaming]

Hey Evereone!
My Cpu spec
Intel Core i3-2120 3.3 Ghz CP
4 gb ram
nvidea geforce gt 610 2 gb ddr3 gpu

i can play most game fluidely like modernwarfare 4 gta4 etc
but in low graphic.i am deciding to put 8 gb ram can it make my game on high setting or no diffrence

Maybe a small difference, but the main thing you need is a new GPU.

Like SS said, you need a new GPU. RAM will help, but not as much as you want.

1) 4GB for most games is enough, especially for games you support and at those settings:

2) Make sure you have 64-bit Windows (preferably Windows 10, which can be upgraded from 32 or 64-bit W7/W8 though 32-bit must be a clean upgrade)

3) GPU as said above is by far the biggest difference. The GT610 isn't even a gaming GPU. (do not get an AMD GPU as their drivers use too much CPU processing power for DX11 games and you don't have a lot of that to spare, thus with a good GPU you're going to add to the CPU bottleneck and get lower performance)

How much difference?
Obviously the CPU matters too, but let's just compare:

GT610 - 48 CUDA cores
GTX680 - 1536 CUDA cores

The overall processing power is roughly proportional, so the GTX680 is 32X more powerful. Frequency of GPU, CPU, and the game itself all factor in so it's not exactly proportional but obviously you can do much, much better.

What would I do?

Depends on budget and power supply, but a GTX750Ti or GTX950 are great choices.
i.e.
$100 after $20 rebate, GTX750Ti: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-02gp43753kr

$130 after $30 rebate, GTX950: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-video-card-gtx950m2gd5

Performance?

Crunch the numbers and the GTX950 is about 25X more powerful than the GT610. Again, it won't scale like that and the CPU has a big impact but let's just say, much better.

*A game like Tomb Raider which doesn't require a lot of CPU processing when tweaked will suddenly become quite playable with your CPU and a GTX950.

A suitable 450W would be plenty for your CPU and GTX950 (possibly using the MOLEX->6-pin adapter).

Cheers.

To extend Photonboy's answer, make sure the power supply you are using comes from a reputable vendor, you don't want to be gaming on a cheap power supply. Also though molex to 6+2 pin adapters do exist, it's always better to have a dedicated PCI (6, 8, or 6+2 pin) connector on your power supply as you have no idea how much voltage the molex connectors are pumping into your graphics card and you may potential either get less than adequate performance or be slowly causing damage to your graphics card due to always pumping in 100% power.

I wish you the best of luck with your system and good gaming!

+1 on not using molex to pci-e and molex to data adapters, they can even be fire hazards. I've known them to start fires
