Yes, Mark was refering to the RAM.
You have listed DDR667, which probably has timings of 5-5-5-15. If you bought
DDR800 with timings of 4-4-4-12, you would see a nice bump in memory bandwidth. Here are some graphs that that give you an idea.
What do these numbers mean to you? Better performance. Is the RAM you chose good enough, yes. I'm not sure what Mark meant by 'bandwidth limited'.
Bottomline, for the best performance, get the fastest RAM with the 'tightest/lowest timings' you can afford.

Do you have a link to the RAM you are buying or a model number?

Si soft sandra reported that my system wsa 'bandwidth limited' - not sure why, I just presumed faster ram 'may' make a worthwhile difference.

graphics card also needs more memory, if you are planning to edit High Def in the future, you need at least 512mb onboard graphics.

Yes, the Memory RAM should be 800mhz for that CPU. 667 would be the bottleneck in your whole system.
That seems pretty future proof.
