No, your video card is holding you back. The x1300 is a pretty poor card and is going to be the limiting factor.
If you upgraded to a new video card, then you may see some benefit from more ram after that addition.

Gaming performance is a lot more dependent on the video card :
1. GPU architecture; more shaders or stream processors the better.
2. GPU core clockspeed; higher is better
3. Videoram clock speed; higher is better. 256Mb ddr3 beats 512Mb ddr2
Your 2Gb ram upgrade would hardly give significant improvement. Just spend your money on video card upgrade. A 7600GT ddr3 would be better but 7900GS or x1950 Pro would be great. The faster/powerful cards could break the bank because they would need monster power supplies also.

sdiver is right, the raedon x1300 isn't real good.
Get yourself a nice Nvidia 1G!
