Hello.
As a noob who heard something, I want to verify some information.
I currently own 4GB 1333 RAM (Kingston) in dual channel (2x 2GB in one box, that's dual channels isn't it?). I'm planning to buy an additional 4GB of RAM, but the market has changed and I stumbled upon two problems.
1. 1333 RAM are more expensive than 1600. Can I get the 1600 ones instead without 'harm' to my PC? Will the 1600s "downtune" to the 1333s and the PC will work smoothly?
2. There's a problem finding 2x 2GB of RAM. Will one 4GB memory stick work similarly good to the 2x 2GB? That way, I'd have one free slot for future upgrades. Or I should rather go with the 2x 2GB?
