seems fine as it is.

Unless you use vista x64, it wont use 4gb ram properley anyway...

have you considered upgrading the CPU you board supports AMD socket AM2+/AM2 for Phenom FX

I believe thats a quad core processor

The phenom is awesome. running a 9850 here - overclocked it to 3Ghz... on 4GB 1066 RAM...
