I have two slots of 256 mb ram for a total of 512 mb. I do a lot of digital photography and so I need more RAM -- I am about to buy a 512 stick ($41) and keep a 256 stick in there for a total of 784 mb. Do you think I'll notice any difference between 512 mb and 784 mb given the amt of money I am spending? I'm planning to buy a new computer in about a year.

Yes you will, but i would get 2 512 sticks and run 1 GB, will really help things out

It's just that I am not really prepared to spend $100 on RAM. I'm more wondering if it's worth it to upgrade to 784 or not upgrade at all.

My gf's images are nutty. I loaded one and it took a 440MB chunk out of my memory. Get as much memory as you can, whenever possible.
