I need 4 x 1gb RAM to put in it.

Maximum memory module size is 1024mb which made me think that I can not put a 2gb slot of RAM in there?

Many thanks for the help.

Is this RAM dual channel and does dual channel make a massive difference to the speed of the system?

I beleive the motherboard makes the dual channel not the memory, belongs you put the ram in the correct slots 1 & 3 or 2 & 4 you will be running in dual channel.
I am running that memory in my media center and not had any problems.
