Currently I am using 4GB ( 2 x 2) of these:

along with 2 x 1GB of these:
https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-072-OC
giving me 6GB.
I use my PC for 3d modelling and animation, After Effects, photoshop that kind of thing.
I have overclocked my Q6600 to 3.4, but haven't touched the Ram, which runs at 400MHz Dual interleaved timing 4-4-4-12 @ 2T
The memory is DDR2, would I have any problem taking advantage of the cheap OCZ Ram offers just now, and adding 4GB (2 x 2) of DDR3?
Would this work, or would I be better just getting another 4GB of the Corsair like I have.
*NOTE*
This will be my last upgrade with my current P35-DS3 board, my next will be new board architecture, new CPU and Ram.
It will have to be a big step up from what Im running just now, so willing to wait.
As I said, its just because RAM is so cheap just now, maybe its a good time to upgrade to 8GB.*
*I WILL use all 8GB...some big 3D scenes are hitting the limits just now.
Thanks.
