I have a geforce 4 mx 440 with 64 meg ddr ram and i have noticed that eg buildings in vice city don't render untill you are reasonably close (even with draw distance set high) but when tested on the same computer (Athalon XP 2800 512 ddr 400) with a raidon 9000 with 128 ddr ram, there are so many improvements, let alone quicker rendering, greater draw distance but also textures look so much better, almost everything is better.
So deffinatly the graphics card will cause a massive improvement to your games, especially something like BF 1942
