but still not worth the cost, how many apps apart from pro apps utilize that much of memory?

you are not new to lowyat, please do a search, there is a ram upgrading thread http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/912014 ,and why is the need for 8GB anyway? tell us more about the apps that you use that will justify the costly upgrade. oh and Macsales.com lists the 4+4GB at RM960 http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20Wor...g/8566DDR3S8GP/

yeah i am kinda new on this , so i wanted to ask if 8gb will make a big differences . Or Does the 8gb ram will help the mac book in terms of  gaming performance ?

again you are not new to lowyat, you were here longer than me, u shud know the basic function of a search. anyways, the only boost for your gaming would be your HDD or GC,get a faster HDD, a 7200RPM drive for speed or the momentus XT(hybrid), 8 GB will only speed up in more of the cpu intensive apps like rendering 3d stuffs and also rendering movies using fcp or any other editor as well as batch editing otherwise its a costly upgrade.
