If you really want to know more about the core hardware on your system, download CPU-Z from the following link and run it. It's a free, portable app, so there's no installation. Just uncompress it and run the exe file. The download link you're after is actually a version number that appears near the bottom of the page in the Versions area. Grab the newest one (1.46) and enjoy a different look at your hardware. :O) http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php P.S. You'll find the detailed info on your RAM under the SPD tab. The drop down box within that tab lets you look at each memory stick seperately. These are the things that must match before dual-channel operation will engage.
