DUAL CHANNEL Question --- I just bought a Dell 3647 Desktop with 4Gen i3-1460 processor.
It only has 4 GB DDR3 1600MHz memory. I want to go to 8GB.
Will a second 4GB stick activate Dual Channel? If not, what do I need to do?
Will this computer even become Dual Channel?
--BTW-- I'm running Win8.1 64 BIT, so addressing is not a limiting factor.
What else am I overlooking?
Perhaps I'm overcomplicating a simple Plug and Play upgrade.,,,?
Thanks,
