Well, there is sometimes a problem with number of banks - if you have 4
banks per channel rather than 2, you sometimes need to increase command rate delay to 2T or even lower memory frequency. Double-sided memory is usually two-banks. So usually it is better to use single sided memory only. Mirek "Bx.C" píse v diskusním príspevku .. . I'm looking at getting an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum w/ AMD Athlon64 3000+ (socket939).
