Jaquith, he is using 64 bit OS system.

My advice is forget the ram and get an SSD (solid state hard drive) for your boot drive. The system improvement is nothing short of astounding in actual use.

Otherwise you have a nice setup. Sometimes the little things can make improvements....one of the most overlooked programs available is Microsoft Cleanup. You'll find it in the accessories section in your menu. Run it once a week to keep the junk files cleaned up. Also, download CCleaner free off the internet.....it is a good program and helps to keep things running better.

Enjoy your system.

Habit. Better to be redundant than cause a problem for OP; I overlooked "Windows 7 x64"

Sure get an SSD, heck a better CPU or better/SLI/CF, etc. All costs a lot more $ and doesn't address the OP question of RAM vs ReadyBoost.

2 good guides, some overlap each other.

I'm not a big fan of CCleaner unless you have a problem. and first prefer System File Checker options {Files & Disk}.
