minimum machine specs

Ok, I have a question, or two.
I know I need a video card upgrade. I just read the minimum game requirements and it says that I should have as a minimum AMD 64x2 duel core 4000+ processor. I currently have an AMD Athlon 64 4000+ in a 939 socket mb. I have 2GB of ram. I'm running windows XP 32 bit. I should be ok on my PSU. I replaced it a while back with a 650W, I'll have to look to be sure (it might be higher).
1. Do I also need to get another CPU (is there really that much difference between the two)?
2. Will I notice enough of a difference in performance if I bump up my ram to 3GB or even to 4GB? (The vid card will have 512MB to 1GB ram)
Is it true that a 32 bit processor will use just under 4GB. Do I need to consider the vid card memory in that total?
3. Are there any fireproof robes for my conselor? or do I have to use the force on everything?
4. Are these the droids I'm looking for?
