If you are using a lot of textures in your work you can't go wrong. Also if you are editing your finished animations, no amount of RAM is overkill. I work in the video effect trade, and remember the good old days when 512Mb of RAM was considered the ultimate in performance;)

w/ what you're running for apps, I'd say thats a good amount of memory. If I remember correctly, AutoCAD likes its RAM.
