Here's a challenge.
Is Dual Channel really better then Single Channel on 64bit machines.
1 Stick or 2 Sticks (3 and 4 may taint the results but post them if you have them.
With this question, I welcome both Intel and AMD platforms but it must be a current socket 478,754 or later mobo that supports real dual channel. Please state what hardware (Example: Intel 775 C2D E6600, AMD AM2 4200X4).
What I've been hit with is that you only realize about a 1% gain with 2 sticks VS 1 stick. All the Sandras and other Benchs show more like a 40% bump. If we get anything less than 20% then dual channel is a farce!
