There's no point in upgrading your RAM. Save the money and buy a new graphics card.
don't bother with the ram.
I have to if I'm upgrading the mobo
I'm going from a ddr2 mobo to a ddr3 mobo cause my current motherboard doesn't support dual cores.
He currently has DDR2 600Mhz RAM. Going from that to 1333Mhz he will definitely notice a performance increase.
That a single core processor you have right now?
Because I have the same one then :/
Looks good otherwise.

Whoever rated disagree is a boxhead. DDR2 600mhz to DDR3 1333mhz is a noticeable diff. 700 more mhz
