Can someone explain what ddr2 dual channel memory is?? do u need identical RAM's for that???
Ideally you need identical RAM. But it's not compulsory. You need to have dual channel to compensate for the slowness of the RAM compared to the system bus speed of Intel systems. Your CPU is FSB800 and if you use DDR2-533, your system performance is heavily bottlenecked by the slowness of the RAM. If you have dual channel RAM configuration, then you can go up to 1066MHz system bus without being bottlenecked. Well, then the latencies will come into play. It's not as simple as it seems.

    But you said it's no good :lol: :lol: :lol:
    Contradictory statements :D
    no good in performance.It is good than without a one.And very simple like.Other one cant run like this coz it has so many connectors , facilities so all will get messed up.So I hav to decorate it to make it pretty.

    You think so... great...thnx but the vga should hav been better... its 64 bit
    Dont worry.Many of other guys use 64bit things.
    U have to avoid 7300LE and go for the 7300GS,GT or 7600 series if u wanna go 128bit or higher.With the prices here it is not possible.As Its PCI-e u got an advantage.check this price list. U wiil see that even if u pay for the shipping it is even cheap than here.http://h

    yeah i didnt know .... this ones Rs.7000 i think... and for that dual channel thing u need to hav the same capacity RAM's
    It depends on the chipset. Ideally, yes. But on my motherboard, I'm using 512x2 + 1GB and still getting 100% dual channel. The two 512MB DIMMs are in channel 0 and the 1GB DIMM is in channel 1.

    what do you hav...?? NFS Carbon works well with this 7100..
    What do you mean "well"?
    I have an X800GTO modded and overclocked.
    I run Carbon at 1280x960 with everything maxed including Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering.
    And this is a temporary card until I move to DX10 ;)
