| 399598 | 2005-10-27 21:08:00 | Does anyone have any insight to this thought concerning RAM? 1) If one has 4 slots for RAM and places just one 1 gig stick in one OR: 2) One places 4 - 256 sticks in the 4 slots.... Will there be any good or betterment doing it one way or the other. I am asking about access time, shadowing, pipelining or does daisey-chaining effect happen here? Sorry if I am using some old-fashioned terms here...this goes back to my old days of C>64 programming where these things were very important and could be detrimental to the whole system. :D I have heard people claim that using 4 sticks causes a latency to be introduced, Personally I think ram access speeds are so fast that its a non-issue, Most probally show up as tiny hit on a synthetic benchmark and have no real world impact. I could be wrong, But I have never seen anyone complain. |
