Hey guysm this is an open discussion really, I have heard mixed reviews of how easy it is to get the A8V to perform nicely with all 4 DIMMS populated.

At the moment I am using a matched pair of 512MB Kingston pc3500 ( rubbish ) and need to ugrade to 2 GIG ( Vista ).

The only sticks in my price range are in the OCUK value 1GB kit. Will these be compatible?

I hear to increase compatility you will need to drop timing to 2T and to possibly lower the memory speed. ( timings will definately go ). Is this drop in memory acces timing enough to negate the hoped for benefit of the upgrade?

Why don't you bay the memory you have at the mo and get a 2gb kit. Then you'll only need to populate 2 slots! ;)

If you can't bay it then see if you can sell it on to a friend.
