If I've googled correctly, dualchannel support would mean that it's better to get 2 modules, but since I don't have dualchannel support,<BR />what should I buy?<BR /><BR />Thx for replies,<BR />merry christmas and a happy newyear,<BR /><BR />KG<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 27 Dec 2007 18:57:30 GMT https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/1x2048-or-2x1024-ram-replacement-does-this-make-a-difference/m-p/21909#M65554 KingGeorge 2007-12-27T18:57:30Z Re: 1x2048 or 2x1024 RAM replacement?

You can experimented with two 2GB 667 sodimm ram module and "/3GB" option in boot.ini file. May be your mobo can access all 4GB memory.<BR /><BR />Best regards.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 29 Dec 2007 13:33:35 GMT https://community.sony.it/t5/pcs-accessories/1x2048-or-2x1024-ram-replacement-does-this-make-a-difference/m-p/21911#M65556 LankyMax 2007-12-29T13:33:35Z Re: 1x2048 or 2x1024 RAM replacement?
