If I'm going to upgrade, I'll wait until I get a new notebook or desktop.

Will have to save up for that.

I found a nice difference when I started using two gb. Especially while playing FEAR. I wouldn't like to tackle a game like Oblivion without 2gb of RAM. From what I've read, it's quite stressful on the old system.

Notice I say "I've read" cos I'm still bloody waitin' for me collectors Edition from Play.com!!!! Supposed to have been posted this day last week. AAAAAHHHH!!!!!
