i've got a computer setup and it's based around the asus m2n4-sli board. my problem is everything works great, except i can't find ram that will run in dual-channel mode with this board. so far i've tried wintec ampx 1gb kit, and a-data 1gb kit, and both will register 1gb of ram and work fine, but not in dual-channel. i'm looking for a 2gb dual-channel kit, preferably with heat spreaders, but i'll take anything that will work correctly. ------------------ proverbs 25:7 www.gfa.org - Gospel for Asia www.persecution.com - Voice of the Martyrs |

Just to cover all bases; make sure the RAM is in the appropriate place on the motherboard. Most boards will run dual channel when RAM is in slots 1 and 3 but check the manuel to be sure. My personal favorite vendor for RAM is Kingston; I've had hundreds of machines over the last 3 years built with Kingston RAM with barely any failures. While it isn't anything uber special it runs solid and stable, which is my concern; I'm not much of a overclocker. Right now my machines at home are all running dual channel with 'vanilla' Kingston RAM. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820134045 It's so inexpensive right now it's retarded. The price will start to rise closer to Christmas however. [This message has been edited by Mack (edited September 23, 2007).] |
