    Dual Sided Ram and a s754

    I was reading some reviews on RAM from ebuyer.

    One of them said that Socket 754 boards don't take two sticks of Dual Sided RAM.

    But i have 2x512MB sticks of PC3200 Dual Sided in my system at the moment.
    Running at 221MHZ with a 3000+ Winnie @ 2.21GHZ and an Asus K8V SE Deluxe.

    Does anyone know if its safe for me to run 2 dual sided 1GB sticks in this? Or can I just get another single stick of PC3200 1GB and put that in?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    You can just get another 1GB stick and put it in, but you're likely to have to slow the whole lot down a bit, by slackening timings or going to 166MHz (or a combination). 2x1GB sticks might be a bit better, but probably not much.

    Sorry, its a newcastle I have.

    Not at home at the moment.

    This is just because of my current upgrade crisis.

    I have to decide whether to do what I can with my current set up. Or goto s939 and get better memory controller but not upgrade the ram.

    939... definitely... 3700 SD... I'd wish I had one after I witnessed the impossible (overclock) at a local computer store... curse my 3500+ venice.. but still its all good.. its all good...
