thanks for the info, i have my ram in the 1&2 slots, i'll change dem to the 1&3 next restart...and no, i haven't sorted the HDD issues, if they really are issues cuz the light STILL stays on solid, and the drive operates flawless, so honestly i not worryin about it, i need to sleep at night, lol
I have nooo idea what you just said, but it is possible to run mismatched pairs of memory (as long as both modules are of the same size) in dual channel mode. Before my dad bought a matched pair, I set up 2 kingston value sticks, one 333mhz and the other 400mhz and overclocked the 333 to meet the 400 so they both ran at the faster speed. Obviously these weren't a matched pair, but ran in dual channel mode nicely.
