Greetings Earthlings.
I come to your cyber-world in peace and with a question in mind.
I am looking to build a budget system (an AMD rig with the Phenom II X4 840 - essentially a re-badged Athlon, IK) and wanted know if I should occupy both channels of my dual-channel motherboard (2GB x 2) or just use a single 4GB stick (4GB x 1)?
You see, the motherboard in question is the Asus M4A78LT-M LE and has only 2 DIMMs.
Would I see a noticeable performance hit if I used only one channel of the two?
Thanks for your time.
