It's been a very long time since I posted here :)

I'm going to upgrade my memory and 1GB is a bit too much so I'm thinking of getting 768MB

If I get two sticks of Corsair PC-3500 C2 RAM, one 256 mb and one 512 MB, would there be any problems running dual channel mode?

I'm planning on hitting 200FSB at fastest timings DC in an Abit NF7-S Rev 2.0.

Thanks.

I am pretty sure the sticks have to be the same size. Kind of like RAMBUS. Goodluck with it though.

I'm almost 100% sure that different sized won't work with Dual Channel.
