Hi,
I recently purchased a second hand Celeron D 320 as I have an Asus P4P800 Deluxe. I used to pair a P4C 2.4 GHz with 2 modules of ddr 400 in dual channel. It ran well overclocked to 3.1 GHz with the Ram ratio reduced to 333. I know that the i865 chipset handles well a different ratio for Ram and FSB but I wonder what would be the impact on the Celeron. I do not intend to overclock and I have a module of ddr 266. Should I make it run in dual channel or upgrade to a faster memory? I try to use what I have but I don't want to spend much. I couldn't find much info about the impact of ddr frenquency and single/dual channel mode for that processor. By the way, it will be only for internet browsing, music, movies and Dvd burning. Any help would be much appreciated.
