if you're going for fast ram, check out some corsair xms ddr433 pc3500. them are good stuffs.
1 gig of ram no doubt. even with the stuff i do, i wouldn't be caught dead with less. if i were doing a lot of rendering, and i knew the programs i were using could make use of it, i'd probably go 1.5-2gb.
i'd also suggest a duallie setup. i've got a friend of mine that does a lot of 3d/cad rendering on his p2.4 lappytop w/ 512mb, and it generally takes a few hours to do a rendering.
also, have you checked the ati fire gl series vid cards? they make some sweet shit intended for this kinda stuff. but, i've always been a huge fan of ati.
