Sheep are bound to be sucked in by the marketing hype. The public majority always want the Mk2 of something followed by the Mk3, etc.

The simple moral of the story is that those who keep their ears to the ground and their heads under their bonnets always win. Suckers always lose out.

System specs: "Phoenix" - Intel C2D E4500 overclocked to 3GHz with ACF7Pro HSF on Volt-modded ASRock 775Dual-VSTA mobo (modded BIOS rev 3.10A and VNB=1.65, Vagp=1.8), 2x1GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 RAM (3.0,3,3,8,1T @546MHz), Sapphire ATI HD3870 512MB GDDR4 PCIe graphics card overclocked to 850MHz GPU & 2.4GHz RAM. Powered by Hiper Type-M 580W PSU. Guess who likes overclocking on a budget.

you see, another way to see band width in leymans terms, is like swimming in a pool. its far easyer and faster to swim in the deeper water than the shallower water. Less drag. Just like band width.

Slippy On yer bike.

Unfortunately your wrong, swimming in 1 meter of water is faster than in 2 meters or deeper.

Swimming in shallower water is quicker. You get to use your feet on the floor

Using Thermodynamics you can prove that in shallow water you move more water behind and less down, this makes you faster.

The Idea behind the request for the article. Is that dual channel when expanded to run in for channels as on todays boards inherently leads to greater lack of stability especially if you are an Intel mobo. My new build I will be doing latter this year will need 8gig of ram as I'm going vista. Looks like Ive started another argument about how much ram you need on vista. When I built my current rig it was equipped with 2 gig of dual channel. It was the right decision, other forumties like Wizzard said it was stupid and when onto so called prove it. That soon fell as FEAR Will happily use 2 gig as does quake 4 Doom3 if you crank up the eye candy.

I want to be able to use 4 slots totally stable (suitable for overclocking, altering ram timings) for my next build and I want technology candy to go with it.

I see dual channel as a serious weakness for the future of the enthusiast who wants to build poots with a degree of future proofing in. My socket 939 has been amazing and still is.
