[QUOTE="Kash, post: 547347, member: 23444"] Dual Channel RAM doesn't offer that big of a performance boost if you can actually utilize all 3GB as the additional memory will offset any performance loss from the lack of dual channel mode. If you need 3GB, then get a 2GB and 1GB module and you're set. If you don't see yourself using all the RAM, then stick with 2GB for the slight performance boost of dual channel mode. [/QUOTE]
