I recently installed 1 stick of Kingston pc2700 DDR($65 at newegg.com). Now I was thinking of getting another stick to take advantage of the dual channel motherboard, but I've read from various sources that they do not work very well in dual slots. I'm wondering how much of an increase in performance there would be going from this single stick to say, two sticks of Kingston Hyper X 256mb pc2700 DDR cas 2(just because it's cheap $46 each).
Or if anyone has experience with just two sticks of this 512mb pc2700 I'd like to hear about it.
Would like to keep the cost down and just get the most effective memory I can get for the price.
Has anyone else heard rumors that double sided single sticks put in the 3rd slot enable dual channel? I've only read this a handful of times and people seem to argue over if this works.<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by sedb on 04/08/03 01:14 AM.</EM></FONT></P>
