Both are very important especially for games. 4GB should be plenty for anything these days and a 2GB graphics card won't be any improvement over a 1GB card except at really high resolutions. 4 - 8 GB Ram and a decent 1GB Graphics card should be absolutely fine.
4 GB RAM should be fine, you're not building a server. Why would you need a 2 GB graphics card for? Are you using more than 1 screen or something?
1GB memory for Graphics card should be sufficient for 1 monitor.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
