Another technical memory question...

[BrentUnitedMem]

From ANANDTECH.COM article (3rd Paragraph):
http://wwwanandtech.com/memory/showdoc.aspx?i=2145


"we know that 2 single-sided modules do perform slower than 2 double-sided modules on the Intel platform"



Can anyone comment further on this?

Anandtech has another article explain that certain Intel chipsets perform better with more RAM chips, rather than less.

Crashman first pointed out this article, he maybe able to shed some more light on it.
