This is a question regarding RAMBUS... RIMM PC800 (or RDRAM)
Believe it or not my Dell computer has 1X 128MB Chip and 1X 0MB blank Clip
OR in other words:
Slot 1 = 128MB PC800 RIMM
Slot 2 = 0MB PC800 RIMM (Just a stick with no chips)
Everybody keeps telling me that you HAVE to have the ram in Pairs. They said that it is actually 2X 64MB... But I opened my computer and I found 1X 128MB and 1X 0MB Blank Stick. BIOS agrees with me too.
But that doesn't matter me too much. I just wanted to know can I have a 128MB stick in 1 slot and 256MB stick in the other? So they total up around 384MB.... or do they HAVE to be in PAIRS?
E.g. 2X 128MB and 2X 256MB?????
I keep getting different results from many PC stores. I'm very confused... An expert advice would be really helpful.
Cheers!
