get 2x2gb ram instead of just one stick of ram. Dual channel is much better.

Patflute, I'm not sure it is "much" better, maybe slightly. See Single v Dual @tomshardware
There is probably more improvements by going to 8gb dual even though he may not use it.

Also the WD Green is supposed to be a little quieter.

And I dont think you can overclock with that mobo? Dont you need a Z77?

total system performance will increase 6- 10 % with dual channel RAM . Its a very cheap way of increasing performance

Green is quiter, but slower.

Caviar Green is only useful when you are just storing, not for OS and Storage. Get a 7200rpm drive.

I think he will be using the 128gb SSD for OS, but if you reckon its still too slow go with the faster 7200rpm.
