So, my local Microcenter has the Patriot Signature line 512DDR400 on sale for 37 after rebate. I went in and grabbed 2, to fill in the other 2 slots on my board for another set of Dual Channel. I currently have 2x512mb in DC mode.
Anyways, a salemane walked by and told me not to get them if I wanted to run dual channel mode. I'd need a package of 1 GB Dual channel kit (same patriot sig line) instead.
So I learned my new Lesson of the day: That I'd need Dual Channel Memories to run Dual Channel mode on my Dual Channel enabled mobo.
btw, anyone has any experience with patriot sig series?? Should I return the two individual 512mb pieces that I bought and wait a while till Memories go on sale again? I don't really need it. Just buy it for the sake of it since they're cheap.
Thanks for your suggestion.
