guys, may pagkaiba ba talaga?
if you use dual kits in your dual channel slot compared to two exact same rams installed on a dual channel slot.
does it exceed the benchmark talaga?

May 16th, 2008 10:09 AM #3Dual channel kits are optional. If your board is dual channel capable, using 2 sticks of ram of the same size and timings will work. The only advantage you get from buying dual channel ram kits is they guarantee that you are getting ram of exactly the same specs.
Remember that not all ram are the same. Some can take faster timings and some are just built better. So its really up to you if you think the additional cost is worth it.

just buy two identical sticks and be done with it. most mobos nowadays aren't too fussy about dual-channel.
these dual kits are usually more expensive and may not give any tangible benefit but some of them may give you better timings, thus slightly better performance (which you may not notice at all).

salamat po sa info guys. I did some research and a company like corsair says it's better to buy a kit kasi every 4 months may revisions sila kahit same specs. hehe... marketing stategy nga...
