Sure, (depending of course on what you do with your computer), enable fast writes. This enables the video card to use system RAM when it needs more memory...communicating directly with the AGP bus.
If you have a Via chipset, updated drivers supposedly streamline the pipeline.
Note: on some systems this is a source of lockups...if you make the change this is the 1st thing to suspect if you start getting lockups.
Mostly depends on game developers...and how they utilize
fast writes in their programming.
