More RAM would definitely solve your problem, but regarding raytracing, there's another thing you can try. Check out the R3HDN.TXT file up in DL9 (I think that's what it's called). In addition to other useful things, it describes how you can use the MAX-SHADOW-LEVELS 3ds.set parameter to adjust how much memory you'll use with ray-traced shadows. By reducing this paramater to 4-5, you'll use less memory.
