Dual Channel RAM Question

[klipper]

Hi all,

I have an ASUS A7N8X Deluxe with 2x 256MB sticks of Twinmoss RAM running in Dual Channel Mode.

If I want to upgrade the RAM to 1GB will I be able to add 1 x 512MB into the remaining slot and still have it all in Dual Channel Mode or do I need to get 2 x 512MB sticks?

Thanks in advance.

Any combination of 3 dimms will run only in single channel mode.

It will run in dual channel only if the amount of mem in both "channels" is the same. if you want to do a gig then you can put a 512 stick in one channel and 2x256 in the other channel. since you already have 2x256

My P4P800 manual said that any combination of any 3 dimms will result in single channel.... are they on the same chipset?
