[QUOTE="RichM, post: 679882, member: 96273"] I look at it a bit differently. Marching ram to a motherboard today really is not done properly and in so many cases 1 stick of ram will run fine on some motherboards but double it and the system won't run and I believe that's because the higher the amount used, the more likely incompatibility will show up. I never use ram on a board that has not been tested and reported for it so I never have these issues but before I did things that way, I used to see it all the time. Properly matching ram involves knowing density, cas latency and ecc factor which is so hard to find on any given stick of ram these days. Speed is the least important factor, yet it is the only standard most people apply. [/QUOTE]
