Going overboard building my new PC?

No, the new DDR400 will eat RD1066. Here's why...

With the brand new dual channel DDR technology each DIMM has it's own independent memory controller. As such, it allows for double the bandwidth if used in conjunction with two matching modules. With single channel DDR400 you only have 3.2GB of memory bandwidth; however, with dual channel DDR, using two matched XMS modules of DDR400 you would get 6.4GB of memory bandwidth. That's what this system I am building will have, which is 2.2GB more than RD1066.

The motherboard I have has dual channel DDR400 memory support. Ultra low latency DDR400 dual channel memory is faster than RD1066 memory now... This board has the best of everything.

you said DUAL CHANNEL, didn't you.....more than once.....hehe.....um....I'll just shut up now...hehe
