Looking at speeding up the system a little, especially when the gf is running multiple applications for her uni work. Its currently running 4gb 667mhz ddr2. I'm thinking of either faster 8gb ddr2 at 1066mhz or 4gb ddr3. Not sure which would be more suitable. I mainly use it for photo stuff. It also supports a media extender box.
The rest is:
Asus P5kc P35 so will take either 4 slots of ddr2 or 2 ddr3
Vista 64, though soon to be 7
Quad 6600, stock speeds, though could be clocked i guess, its got a silent knight cooler
Hdd will be upgraded to 1tb samsungs in raid in near future.

Any thoughts/advice appreciated, i'm started to get confused
