I am planning on purchasing 4 GB of new RAM from newegg.com and I was wondering what exactly it would increase performance for, and by how much. Right now, I only have one GB (to see other specs of my computer, check my signature).

So, here are the categories of performance enhancement I am looking for:
1. Gaming (namely, World of Warcraft)
2. Graphics work (Photoshop, Final Cut)
3. Everyday multitasking (iTunes, Firefox, ichat, Pages, etc.)
4. Anything else that might be a noticeable increase that doesn't fit into above categories.
