1Gb Dual channel question...

[cwcline]

Is there any way to make two 256 sticks of DDR400 and one 512 stick of DDR333 (that is stable at DDR450+) work together in a AI7 with the 256 running in Dual Channel? Or could I only run it all if it was single channel? Would I be better of to buy another stick of 512 and get a gig that way? Or can you run two sticks in dual channel and one is single channel...doesn't sound possible to me, but I am new to the whole dual channel thing.

It will all run in single channel. Intel chipsets need matching pairs.

You going to need to buy a 2nd 512 of the same speed to run Dual Channel in your chipset

Yeah, get another 512MB stick.

Or sell the 512 stick and get 2 256 sticks.
