So the 64 MB won't help for playing at higher resolutions?

Right now I have a TNT 1 16MB the sound stutters and when there are a 
lot of guys in the room on Wolfenstein it is intensely jerky.  If you 
add detail it doesn't seem to change it too much until you bump the res 
a notch higher.  I'd like it to be slightly sluggish perhaps but a whole 
lot more playable (smooth sluggishness if you know what I mean).

The 64 is still in the right price range since the girlfriend is going 
to buy it.
