Memory channels are one of those quiet design choices that can make a gaming PC feel snappy or strangely sluggish, even when the CPU and GPU look strong on paper. The difference between running a ...

Dual-channel memory kits are readily available, although buying two of the same RAM module will often be as good, even though the modules won’t have been verified as dual-channel capable together.

Looks aside, the G.SKILL Trident Z F4-3600C15D-16GTZ offer very little to make us want to upgrade to this set of DDR4. Yes, the look amazing, but unless that is all that matters in your near $200 ...

This is a good question, as there is no technical downside to having 4 x 4GB of RAM in a system. This comes down to the chipset, where if you were using Intel's latest X99 chipset, you'd have ...

One of the check-off features of Intel’s big Haswell-E CPU is support for quad-channel DDR4 memory, but my testing shows it may not matter much. Think of memory channels as shotgun barrels. You know ...

I'm talking about an Nforce2 board here, but the concept applies to other chipsets (intel). I know dual channel on AMD systems doesn't give much improvement, but can it be done with two randomly ...

The impact of removing two of the three memory modules was rather limited in gaming scenarios. At 1920x1200 in Unreal Tournament, single and dual-channel DDR3-1333 memory delivered exactly the same ...
