RDRAM

[BigRollTide]

Do you have to put RDRAM in pairs?

Probably....98% chance yes.

<A HREF="http://www.rambus.com/company/press/pressreleases/2002/020225a.html" target="_new">"The RIMM 4200 uses the 1066 MHz speed bin of current production RDRAM to deliver the highest performance available to date from a single PC memory module," said Tom Quinn, vice president of Marketing, Samsung Semiconductor, Inc. "<font color=red>A single module that supports two channels of RDRAM with 4.2GB/sec of bandwidth makes RDRAM even more attractive from a price-performance standpoint</font color=red>."</A>

So the new 4200 RIMM can allow one module but most don't. Most likely you will need two.

P3 systems also didn't need RDRAM in pairs. Pretty much all P4 RDRAM systems currently out need RDRAM installed in pairs.

Except for the Asus P4T533 (not C). It uses RIMM4200.

Which is why I said "pretty much"
Is that even available?
