The game can't use more than 2GB, period. If you are running with 4GB, you have some left over for your OS. So performance won't go down. Unless you use the 64-bit version (AND have a 64-bit CPU, which you most likely do, and a 64-bit OS, which you may or may not) 2GB is all the game can use.

It WILL go down if you only have 4GB and try to use the 64-bit version because you won't have the extra to make up the slightly slower processing of the 64-bit version. If you have 4GB of RAM, stay with the 32-bit version unless you are crashing.
