Civ4 seems to love RAM... I added 1gb of RAM to my computer the other day and Civ4 does run better now. When I look at the processes running on my computer while the game is running (by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL) it says I'm using 900mb of RAM. I think they should have said the game requires 1gb of RAM if it's going to use that much.

Civ 4 uses dynamic RAM management and basically takes up ALL of the available RAM no matter how much--even if you had eight Gigabytes.

Ah, that makes sense. It did run a lot better with 1gb of RAM than it did with 512mb, that's for sure.
