Hi
i think i am loosing my mind. when i ran my machine at 1 gig ( 2x512 ) , at the start it told me 1 gig 400 mhz dual channel. when i added another 1 gig ( 2x 512 ) , same timing in both cases ( 2-3-2-5) at the start it says 2 gig 333 mhz dual channel ....
why does 2 gig make a difference, i was expecting it to run at 400mhz ?, and can i change the bios settings to 400 mhz or could this be to risky ?
