Which of the following 2 options would be the best route to go? Should I get a new board and cpu or get more RAM? My current system is:

Abit NF7-S 2.0
XP 2400+ Mobile at 11x200 (wont load Windows at anything higher)
2x256 PC3200 HyperX
BFG 6800GT OC (RMA'd a 6800OC, was just sent back a 6800GT OC)

If I was to get a new board it would be the Asrock one with prolly a 3000+ Venice to use my 6800GT OC in the AGP slot but then I would be limited by the 2x256 RAM. If I was to get RAM I would probably get a 1GB stick of some relatively good stuff and add it to the 2x256 I already have. Would I get any more performance out of a new board and cpu and keeping the RAM I have or would I be best with just adding more RAM to my current setup?

Thanks for any info
 
Definitely a new mobo + CPU would be a much better upgrade than a RAM upgrade.
