hi guys i have an ip35 pro xe with 2 x1 gb reaper 8500 and am going to windows 7 next month , would i be better to get another 2x1gb and put them into the second slots or should i get a pair of 2x2gb , any advice ?

Fewer sticks is better, strains the NB less, if you have a high overclock then it will help maintain that. Some marginal performance losses can be found with 4x1Gb compared to 2x2gb, although 4GB is a lot nippier than 2gb when it comes to gaming.
