I want to upgrade my RAM from the current 256MB. Now, I have heard that its wise to buy another 256MB chip and add it to the computer. Then what is called as the "Dual RAM Implementation" will come into effect, thus boosting the performance.
I actually wished to buy another 512MB chip. Is it like 256Mb+256Mb will deliver a better performance compared to a single 512MB chip?
Most newer chipsets can support RAM sticks in matched pairs that will operate at a faster speed than a single RAM stick or mismatched sticks. You'll need to refer to your motherboard manual to find out. If you don't have the manual, there should be a pdf version on its maker's web site, and if you don't have that, look up its chipset on the web site of whoever made it. -- "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped."
