Oh basic question, If I use 2 sticks of ram, say 2x 16gb, that will be duel channel memory ? Or am I going to need 4 sticks ?

That'll be dual channel.

EEE DUAL aka TWO so why would you need four for two ?? Where is the logic LOL

I was just checking dude, the logic COULD BE Ryzen runs channel one as slots 1+3 and channel 2 2+4 - I don't know do I, hence why I was asking - that means 2 sticks would be channel 1 only, Or more likely slot 1 is channel 1, slot 3 is channel 2, and slot 2 and 4 follow respectively

we should teach them a lesson and get gibbo to start posting a load of crazy wrong facts so they post it
I think our various members here have that covered.
You must be mistaken, it's clarly impossible:
Plus, I'm never wrong
AMD thrashing Intel on price/performance but the general public opting for Intel anyway due to brand power, I'm kinda optimistic that AMD will be able to make more of a go of it this time
I'm trying to avoid spending money, but I'm just doing some basic video editing on my i7 quad haswell at 3.37Ghz (laptop), and mother of bob its cray slow, ugggghhhh might have to pre-order
You know you want to mate...
It will be down to your mobo - put two in the wrong places and it will be single channel or not work at all or work but you only see one of them, put them in the right places and you will see both and they will be dual. Read the mobo book carefully if/as/when you get one. Depending on mobo and layout sometimes you need to use two slots of the same colour, sometimes different - YMMV.

maybe if they are faster than intel.remember amd have been showing us snippets of what they are faster at in very limited cicumstances.overall they could still be quite a bit slower. anyone pre ordering before benchmarks out is kinda puzzling.
Well they released Cinebench/blender/etc benchmarks that have been independently validated by trusted sources so I felt fine to pre-order, maybe the gaming performance will be no better than Intel but for workstation/VM/etc use it looks like a great upgrade.
For what I use my system for I'm basically going to have 6900k performance for 40% of the price (even less once I sell my X79 set up).

Very mature of you. If you're going to ignore what i've posted since then, you might as well just stop talking. Especially since I doubt you'll be able to show any 3000Mhz results for yourself. "Clarly" you don't really care either way.
I'm saying nothing
Probably for the best for the same reasons.

My source in R&D just informed me that there's a specially binned 1900x in the works capable of 5.0Ghz with no cooler at all.

Will have to wait until Ryzen 5 or Ryzen 3 is released, as that's more my price range I'm afraid. Although if you want to send your free sample out when you get it, I'll give it a go.

Can always cancel if the benchmarks don't add up.
