This could be mipmaping or hardware acceleration

What are your sliders set at. An increase in ram will not always solve graphic problems. An increase in ram means things run faster but not necassarly better esp. when it comes to graphics.

this sounds like a graphic driver problem. Have you recently installed these drivers ???
Have you allways had this problem

You must have installed graphics drivers in-order for any 3d programs ro work. Try updating them to the newest versions from the Nvidia site. Uninstall the original drivers then put the new ones on after a restart.

As said by the others upgrade your drives. The ones you have are quite old. Im running a GF4 TI4600 with newer drivers and it runs just fine.
Also what did u upgrade your ram from? your CPU's FSB is only 333mhz i think so 400mhz DDR ram is wasted on it. The 400 will be automatically de-clocked by your mobo to 333mhz.
Would have been better to get PC2700 so that the FSB's match, that is unless you plan on o-clocking your cpu FSB to match the 400mhz.
