I'm looking at building a new computer and was hoping for some advice about the different channel memory modules available.
What's the real world difference in performance like between the three bands? Is it worth spending more to get quad channel modules or is it more cost effective to get dual/triple band?
Is the channel width you can effectively use restricted by the motherboard? I was looking to get the Asus Maximus V GENE, but under the tech specs it only specifies dual channel under the supported memory types. Does this mean it would be pointless to get some quad channel modules on this motherboard?
Cheers!
