Out of the list you gave, I'd say the Voodoo 3000 would give the biggest boost, but maybe a new wheel would be a good choice. Slot

Definitely a voodoo3 - the 2000 version is a lot cheaper and only marginally slower. I went from 64 to 128mb ram and no difference - I have 300a at 450 too. Are the pedals that came with the wheel - the CH Pedals talked about - or inferior ones - I had an idea the CH Racing System did not use the CH rudder Pedals - if not - suggest you get those instead of buying more ram.
