What OS are you running? If it is XP you can access more than 4 GB of RAM in any case. Having more memory will help if you are crashing (due to insufficient memory!), but it likely will make ZERO difference in the speed of the computer. If you don't have an SSD, you will likely feel the biggest improvement by moving to one. The program will open up much faster, and loading new files will go faster. Computation on the models will not change, but any disk accessing operation will improve. If you are caching to disk due to low RAM, the SSD will speed that up too....
