Alright, I've got an ASUS P4C800-E and 1GB Kingston HyperX DDR3200. I've got one in DIMM A1 and the other in DIMM B1, this is the correct setup to run dual channel right? And if it is, is there anything special I have to do in BIOS to enable it? Thanks in advance..

No, if its done right there will be no necessary configuration to run DC.

Run a proggie like memtest86 to verify that you are in DC.

Single Channel is typically 800-1000mb/s on an AMD system.

DC ranges between: 1500mb/s to 1900 mb/s

Ok, but I don't have a floppy right now... Are there any other good programs to test this? And what should I be looking for number wise if I'm using an Intel 2.8C?

CPU-Z

Click on the memory tab and it will tell you if you are running in DC or not...
