Hey Guys

Currently using 3 of the 6 slots on the M/B for 6Gb (3x2Gb) OCZ RAM.

I am upgrading my gfx card at Xmas and might have some spare cash so was thinking about upgrading the RAM as well.

I use the PC to game (SWTOR, Skyrim, BF3), Photoshop and Java Programming.

Would an upgrade to 12Gb make a difference? I have heard that 8Gb is enough but cant see 12 being too much overkill?

Win7 64-bit
Intel 920 @ 2.66 (may be overclocked)
Soon to be Graphics = 6970/GTX570

I can sell my Current RAM so can get a bit back.
 
I have got CS5.5 so I can use the 64-bit GFX accelerated version.

I have been looking at the GFX side of things and I am thinking that I would rather go for one of the new cards and save a bit longer for the 12Gb RAM.
