quick questions, obvious answers

newegg lists two different types of speeds for ddr3 1333: "DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666)"

Is there a difference? I'm assuming no, but if someone could explain this one too me, I'm all [eyes].

One more, though I hate to ask a question I know has been asked a hundred times before, which is better, two sticks of 2 gigs or 4 sticks of 1 gig (all other things being equal, including price, dual channel)?

it's 10666...or if you want the real math, 10664 but they use the 6's for a nice, round number.

1333MHz x 8 = DDR310664

 

[BakeThemPie]

so they are the same? Just different ways of rounding the numbers?

Yah, it's up to the manufacturer on how it's labeled.
