Yep, unless you use your comp for applications other than gaming. anything over 2GB is a waste of money.  It'll be a few years yet before gaming software will take advantage of 4GB of RAM.
Bf2 SP uses 1.6 gig of ram on my computer.  1600x1200 everything high.

True, but you do know that buying more ram will be the cheapest way to speed up your pc.
I didn't say otherwise.  If you are running 512/1GB, then getting some additional RAM will be the cheapest way to get a significant increase in performance  on your PC in general, as well as BF2.  What I said, however, was that after 2GB, you really are throwing your money to the wind by buying more RAM, as far as BF2 is concerned.  Any increase in performance due to RAM at that point is undetectable by the human eye.

1g.

I have 3 slots, I use a twin 512 set, I'm looking to trade both of them for a gig stick, or maybe just buy a 1gig stick and add it to the last slot...(I've heard the 2gig sticks have issues)

No sense in buying 2 GB if you have one......at least that's what they say.

Wrong.  You can definitely tell a difference (I know I can) when playing with 1GB vs. 2GB, especially on 64-player servers.

I could be wrong on this, so correct me if I am, but I believe that the computer will recognize the 1.7GB capacity of the ram, but each stick of ram will run at the speed of the slowest one.  So if your 256mb stick is an old, slower one, you're going to be better off running just the 512+1gb at a faster speed.

756?  You mean 768 right? a 256 and a 512 - for 756 you'd need a 500 mb stick...which im pretty sure they dun make =P

I have 2 GB Patriot DDR ram in dual channel - with nifty heat spreaders!

LOL, I hope you're talking about your video RAM there.

1 GB here, but it's PC2700 since that's all my motherboard can handle.  Upgraded from 512 and everything seems way smoother now.

I used to play it on 512. It wasn't too bad, but at the beginning of levels I would have chop as the game was caching, which would go away after a short while. An upgrade to 1.5 gigs has removed that little bit of early game chop

2GB, you can really see the difference between 1GB and 2GB.
Loading is much faster and the game runs smoother.
