Default More ram = more plug-ins?

Evening guys & girls...

I am building a new virtual studio based around the new Apple Mac Dual-Core G5 2ghz (2gb ram) and Logic 7.

I was going to go down the TC Electronic Powercore Firewire route (UAD sort out a PCI-Express card soon!) to share the burden on my processing needs.

The helpful chap from Digital Village suggested that I double my ram instead (4gb). This would increase the amount of plug ins I could use he suggested. He mentioned that using the TC Firewire may cause me latency problems.

What are your thoughts on this? I know that some plug-ins are more CPU intensive than RAM intensive. Would adding more ram allow me to use more plug-ins?
