I had this running 2-3-2-5 at 400fsb in dual channel mode (only 2 sticks). If I get another two sticks can I still run dual channel mode? Will I likely have to loosen the timings?
I tried running 2GB with 2 geil and 2 Kingston but I couldn't pass memtest at ANY timings (even the loosest) so I imagine if I get 4 sticks of the same ram I could do it.
I could also buy 2 sticks of 1GB but the timings are REAL loose on all the sticks I see at newegg, and I may need some extra FSB clocks in the future so the DDR500 will be handy to have around.

So what say the ram gurus? 4 sticks okay in dual channel?
