    1600mhz on Sandy Bridge (confirmation)

    i'll take my chances. the odds are like 99% to 1. the vendor replied saying it will support dual channel so i guess its settled.

    1600mhz on Sandy Bridge (confirmation)

    oh does that mean the one im looking for doesnt support dual channel? currently mine is 2x4gb kingston (the naked one) and i just bought the same exact stick to match them. if so, what are some low priced suggestions for 1600mhz ddr3 16gb kit?
