hi guys, what's the difference buying Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 as a single stick, or in pair?

If i buy a single stick now, and next time buy another stick, will they operate in dual-channel mode even though they don't come in pair?

I'm not using that software, I always install K-lite Mega codec pack to watch movie..... thumbup.gif

hi, found this comment about K-Lite on http://download.cnet.com/K-Lite-Mega-Codec...-10794603.html:


Cons

The latest version has malware attached.

Summary

If you can't find an older version of K-Lite, you might want to avoid it entirely until the malware is wholly removed. Version 7 worked well, and was safe. Same of version 6.

y not buy 2x4gb kit set..

i also din't notice, but i think it wont matter... they are the same thing la... like some of our frens here said - packaging and marketing only la, i doubt it that they actually go to hand pick each and every pair, if they REALLY do that, the cost won't be like what it is now (just my speculation) biggrin.gif

Did you feel the improvement? smile.gif

hi, i didn't run any benchmark test to check, and also i'm not a gamer, so don't really feel much difference. this is mainly a change of 8 gb at 1333MHz, to 8 gb at 1600MHz, so the difference would not be obvious unless really push the system to the limits.

Maybe others who have done the same can run some tests to tell us?

just bought the X-mini MAX II Capsule speakers... sound bigger than the size!!! quite amazing... just that the bass loses to Logitech Z103 (but of course z103 has a sub woofer). thumbup.gif

Just took my HDD Caddy Bay, now installing Windows to my SSD
did u do a clean installation? can we just transfer the c: drive from old hdd to ssd? not that i'm lazy to install windows, just that there's a lot of other programs, and settings, etc etc... i'd hate to have to redo all these all over again...
