Would this computer be good enough?

I purchased a computer a couple years back its a AMD Athlon XP 3000+ 2.17Ghz, i've been planning on upgrading it from a 512MB(default and removable memory) to 2 gigs, and I installed an Nvidia GeForce 6600 256MB graphics card. I usually game alot...such as WoW and CounterStrike Source. So I just need some opinions on my computer if I need a whole new rig or not XD, or would the 2 gigs be good enough.

System specs
The increased RAM will lower loading times considerably and give you overall smoother performance. The 6600 will be able to run most games fine on medium or low settings. You should be able to play with most of the options on High in CS:S and WoW.
