I might upgrade for 512 to 1024 also, as I want to have an uber pc... I might also upgrade my cpu and get water cooling ;).  I'm checking pcworld at the moment for some amd athlon processors, shouldn't be too long doing it now, if I can find anything reasonable, then i might save up to by some things just like you. I also need some new speakers ;).
