I say go for more ram. 2x 1024 is great for upcoming games and your pc wiil work a bit faster.
Sell your value ram and go fo some ddr2 (overclocking) ram. What board are you going to get?

if he goes ddr2, he has to go AM2 ;), ad i doubt he wants that, on the other hand good dr memory has it weight in gold nowadays :ohwell:

Games perform a lot better with 2gig than 1gig. I suggest to grab another gig

Yep get another GB of RAM. If you are going 4x 512mb remember the RAM will be running @ 2T (and probably @ 333MHz) for stability ;)
Ideally you want 2x 1GB sticks of RAM but Im sure you will get a nice performance increase by going 4x 512mb anyway :)

go for 2 gigs, if you can get it. Sell the value ram, or keep it for a rainy day.
