hi. i have a small amount of doh to spend and want to upgrade my comp. which would be the best for me to buy. more RAM or a faster CPU. I currently have a p4 2.6 HT 800 and 1gb dual DDR corsair twinx LL ram. which would give me more power for my money in rendering buying a p4 3.2 or another 1gb of corsair lubly ram?

another note i would add is i am getting a lot of memory exceptions on high poly scenes. whats trhe best for this?

A faster cpu!

You can't have enough RAM anyway, but AFAIK that matters (for speed) only if you're working on big scenes or using many high resolution textures.
