Perfect. That's what I was going to say. I'll also add to that same idea: Take advantage of that dual channel motherboard! Two moatched sticks of ram will work great. I think you'll hinder the performance by adding that last 512, but that's pretty motherboard dependant. Check the user manual. eah, it'll give you more ram, but likely at a slightly lowe speed. Tradeoffs....
