Dual Channel RAM Help

[Merlin4458]

pick me any 2 gig ram from tekheads? as im buying from there. try to keep it close to 100

so storm, just double checking, u recommend buying 2x 1 gig of non dual channeled ram then buying 1x 1 gig of quality dual channeled ram? If your a gamer for example and wont be overclocking?

No. I always recommend 1GB of high performance RAM for gaming and especially for benching. Futile asked specifically about 2GB kits, I did not recommend it. 2GB is way overkill for gamers.

The title of this thread has to do with whether it is worth it or not to get dual channel kits.

2GB is way overkill for gamers.

I'd agree with this statement but saying that I got a good performance increase in BF2 with 2Gb compared to a single 1Gb stick - though BF2 is not really indicitive of memory requirements for games these days....

.... and just to contradict myself for the final time - San Andreas runs much better with 2Gb also
