which is better, 512 mb dual channel? or 768 mb normal? I have some RAM laying around and am wondering which is better.
Whats the rest of your system specs? That should help us to decide how much difference losing dual channel will make. However, chances are that you'll get a slightly smoother PC with 768MB.
ok, my motherboard sucks, so I can't do dual channel no matter what I have an athlon XP 2500+ with a radeon 9600 pro I have 2 stick of kingston value stuff, totalling 512mb. 200mhz. or, I can add another 256 mb stick of 166 mhz dealyo. which should I do? and I was thinking about getting 2 gb, but I don't have the cash. actually, interesting enough, superpi to the 2 millionth number runs like 7 seconds slower. and HL2 episode 1 runs at the same speed, but the load times are MUCH better. I think I'll stick with 768.
The way programs hog memory now, I would say stick with 768 also, and if you cant dual channel, I think that pretty much decided for you
