RAM... Two sticks, three sticks, dual channel, triple channels, huh?
I ordered some computer stuff at 4a.m. and I had a major brainfart when doing so.
I ordered some Crucial ram that came in 2GB sticks, Newegg.com sold is in doubles and triple packs, my thought was well, 6GB is better then 4GB when ordering but after doing so I thought, wait, don't you normally run ram in two's for dual channel?
So tomorrow I have 3, 2GB sticks showing up. Should I order a forth? I mean I KNOW I can run just 3 sticks but that puts is out of dual channel mode, correct? Does it REALLY matter when you get upto 6GB of ram? I mean computers are so quick now days, does it really actually matter?
I have this motherboard:
Newegg.com - ASUS M4A88TD-M/USB3 AM3 AMD 880G HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
I intend to install Windows 7 Ultimate x64 tomorrow on this new motherboard and a Dual-Core CPU.
