There's no a lot of point going to 4GB of RAM if you are running Vista 32. It will use only just over 3 GB. The 64bit Vista versions will make use of 4GB or more.

Having said that. Most modern motherboards need you to install memory in pairs. That may make it most economic to do 2 x 2GB chips rather than try to get a lesser level by combinations of smaller chips.
