Hi there,
I recently bought 8GB of DDR3 1333 ( Crucial CT2KIT25664BA1339 ) for use in my Q6600 system.
I was going to buy a Q9550 and use parts to build a second PC based on the Q6600. Now I wonder if I should just move over to the Core I7?
It would only cost €100 extra to do so if I could use three sticks of my ram for tri channel mode.
Anyone know if that is possible or would I have to buy specific tri-channel ram? Any other opinions on an upgrade path would be welcome!
Q6600 @ 3.0Ghz
MSI X48C Platinum
8GB DDR3 1333
