dual channel memory

[le_stick]

Do I have to have identical memory sticks in order for them to run udal channel i.e same speed and CAS or can I have them at the same speed but difference CAS? And still be dual channel. Thanks for all response


Thanks guys/gals

For stability purposes, it is highly recommended that both sticks of memory be identical to one another. Mismatching memory could lead to all kinds of problems in dual channel mode.

Yep...everything identical. (Which is why most RAM manufacturers ship dual channel 2pc 'kits'; usually easier than trying to match pairs yourself.) :)
