Personally I don't think you'll see a huge increase in any particular
application, but you should see a difference in running multiple
applications at once.

Basically if you can afford it I'd go for the Gig, definitely.  Even if you
see NO difference you can also set up a nice RAM disk and use it to speed up
your browser by caching to RAM.  ;^)

Subject: RAM Question

Ok, so my new computer has a 3 GHz P4 and 512 MB of PC3200 400 MHz RAM.

My question is...

Will I see a marked difference in mulitasking and graphics
programs(like Photoshop) if I add 1 GIG (making it 1512MB), or will the
performance jump remarkably with just an additional 512 MB (taking it up
to 1G).

I am asking because there is quite a price difference in the 512 sticks
vs. the Gig sticks.

TIA
