In general, is there anything stopping me from using three unbuffered sticks of Corsair 256meg cas2 PC2400 DDR ram in my motherboard? Or three sticks of any non-registered ram, for that matter?
I've seen it mentioned in a few reviews that, for example, certain motherboards only support "2 slots unbuffered, 1 registered" out of three slots total.
Is the need for registered RAM once you reach that number of sticks an issue with the motherboard, or with the memory? I can't seem to find much info on motherboard manufacturers' websites as to what their boards will support.
I'd rather go with three 256meg sticks of cas2 than two 512 meg sticks of cas3, but if I will only be able to use two in my system...
Thanks.
How's my first post?
