Hey everyone
I just got started with the computer building process.
So I am looking at memory at newegg.com and I see the capacity options:
-1Gb
-2Gb
-2Gb(2x1Gb)
-3Gb(3x1Gb)
-4Gb
-4Gb(2x2Gb)
-6Gb(3x2Gb)
-8Gb(4x2Gb)
-8Gb(2x4Gb)
-12Gb(3x4Gb)
-12Gb(6x2Gb)
-16Gb(4x4Gb)
-24Gb(6x4Gb)
Then I look at some memories for example this 8Gb(2x4Gb) option:
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL - Retail
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231311
$350
And then at a similar single 4Gb memory:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231310
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9S-4GBRL - Retail
$170
My question is, if I want 8gb what happens if I buy two single 4Gb memories instead of the other option besides me saving 10 bucks for something else?
Thanks
