Those temperatures are at the limit for that chip I think. I would not push it further without better cooling.

What Arne said is of course correct. Personally I would not bother with upgrading ram on that system unless you find a good deal on used you won't notice much if any deference. The Nvidia Nforce chipsets generate quit a bit of heat on their own, make sure you have good air flow in your case.
Ransome, check my thread: http://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread...-ROG-Rig/page4
I'm just trying an Asus GTX 670 TOP card... so far it's awesome! I'm running it on a PCIe2.0 mobo (Asus Rampage III Extreme) and works very well... I think, it would work with your system too... it's running very cool - even OC'd it won't go over 70C (of course, the airflow in the case is important)
