Overkill... ?

Ok... I have my lowly, old Stealth 3240 with an additional 2mb of VRAM for a total of 4mb VRAM. My machine? A P90 with 32mb EDO RAM. Now, my step-brother just purchased a Matrox Millenium with 4mb WRAM and the 4mb daughtercard for a total of 8mb WRAM. My question, how does my current video configuration, with Diamonds latest drivers of course, stack against his in terms of DOS games such as IndyCar Racing II, NASCAR Racing and GP II (his machine is heavy duty for lots of CAD/CAM work)? I realize his is better, but is it overkill for my needs? How much better can I possibly get, compared to what I have, if I get a new card? In other words, am I pretty close to the mosr performance I can get and is too much video memory unneccesary? Thanks ahead of time...
