Couple quick points.

You really will not get the full processing of a quad core because software 
doesn't use it accurately. Running Windows 64-bit would be better for this. 
Not sure about Jaws and 64-bit.

Also, on a Windows system, you will only get 3.0 gigs of RAM to  show up. 
Windows doesn't allow more than about 3 or 3.1. You could use either a Mac 
or Linux system to use the entire 4 gigs.

DDR3 is expensive and you really will not gain much of a performance boost.

I would recommend checking out MaximumPC's website. They also have the 
"Maximum PC No BS" Podcast that discusses lots of high-end hardware. They 
are the experts. Check it out. They are not recommending DDR3 because the 
performance isn't much of a plus.

Thanks,
